Art psychotherapy combines visual art and psychotherapy, and integrates psychotherapy theory into the free creative process. Clients choose art materials based on their current emotions, thoughts and hobbies, and use them as therapeutic media to express inner emotions and thoughts during the creative process, transform subconscious content into the conscious level, or relieve and vent suppressed emotional energy.
The process of each art psychotherapy includes: warm-up, art creation, grandma’s oral sharing of her works and group feedback. As for grandma's creations, their beauty and ugliness are not evaluated from an aesthetic point of view. What is important is that they serve as a "container", allowing grandma to "store" her inner feelings, thoughts and emotions as a "space". In addition, the creative works can be preserved for a long time. As the theme of each expression is different, the creative content presented is also different. This is the best record of the treatment process and serves as the basis for evaluating the grandma’s psychological motivation, psychological process and emotional expression.
