Art Therapy Center of Fishtown

Therapeutic/Clinical Art Therapy combines psychological theory with art media and creative processes to address mental health challenges and life stressors. The Art Therapy Center of Fishtown in Philadelphia offers one-to-one work with a licensed professional, including an initial evaluation. It also offers Therapeutic Artmaking, or "Art as Therapy," in group settings open to the public. These groups use creative activities for self-exploration, relaxation, stress reduction, and mindfulness. The center's services address concerns such as stress, anxiety, and trauma, as well as personal wellness. Its approach brings artistic expression together with therapeutic techniques to help people explore thoughts and feelings, build coping skills, and gain insight into their mental and emotional states.
