I developed a list of research articles, ideas, and therapeutic ways to allow the teens I work with at the Safe House to express there feelings and emotions in a non-threatening way. I presented my ideas to the management team and the Director Val Stotts, such a great lady. She LOVED my ideas and had me present to the rest of our staff. We are implementing an Expressive Arts Therapy group once a week based off of what I brought to the table. HOW EXCITING!!!!!
There is SO much out there. My list was composed from many different sources and contains close to 120 ideas from edible Kool-Aid homemade playdough, glow in the dark bubbles, scratch and sniff paint, mask making, string art, collaging, Value boxs, Graditude Trees and SO MUCH MORE!!!!
