★Title - "Imagination The Portal to Creativity"

 

While not all members of WATA were present for the creation of this panel we hope it speaks to the collective voice of our group.

 

★As art therapists we recognize, the importance of one's imagination and creativity for invention, research, and working through social issues, environmental issues, self-exploration and self-awareness.

 

"Art therapy is a mental health profession that uses the creative process of art making to improve and enhance the physical, mental and emotional well being of individuals of all ages. It is based on the belief that the creative process involved in artistic self-expression helps people to resolve conflicts and problems, develop interpersonal skills, manage behavior, reduce stress, increase self-esteem and self-awareness, and achieve insight."
