Using creative arts including visual art, music, drama, dance, and creative writing as therapeutic modalities that facilitate emotional expression, trauma processing, and healing for individuals of all ages. Church leaders are often the first point of contact for individuals in crisis, making it essential that congregations are equipped to provide appropriate initial support and referrals.

Creative arts therapies activate brain regions that talk therapy alone cannot reach, making them especially effective for individuals with pre-verbal trauma, developmental disabilities, or difficulty with traditional counseling approaches.
