The Benefits of our Three Phase ADOLESCENT & FAMILY Art Therapy Support System:
Reduces negative behaviors of acting out or shutting down, by teaching tools to be successful in the classroom, at home, and with peers.
Helps teenagers find positive ways to manage their feelings (such as anxiety, anger, grief), so your teen can learn how to cope with stress and feel more self-confident.
Uses a teen’s inherent creativity to find solutions to the problems they are encountering, without medications and therapy diagnoses.
Teaches parents strategies and tools that REALLY WORK so you can reconnect and even ENJOY your teen!
Increases:
Effective communication skills, so you won’t resort to yelling as a way to be heard,
Creative problem solving, so your teen doesn’t give up, shut down, or become stressed out when they encounter a problem,
Positive relationships, so your teen can easily cope with frustrations and communicate better, whether it’s school related, friend related, with siblings, or with you.
Behavior management skills, so your teen learns new strategies instead of yelling, acting out, withdrawing, whining, tantrums, or pouting to get their needs met.
A positive sense of self-esteem. As your teen learns to positively get their needs met they feel happier, more confident, and they will continue to use these skills as life long tools.
