Creatively explore life experiences and discover
possibilities.
Experiential Creative Arts Processes can help you to inquire into and create a
more integrated sense of self and well-being with increased self awareness,
acceptance, meaning, purpose and possibility. As you explore, create and
discover you engage physical, mental and emotional aspects of yourself. An inquiry process may include a variety of experiential and
creative modalities. Experiential Creative Arts inquiry processes use somatic,
experiential and creative processes, including (but not limited to) visual
arts: drawing, painting, collage, clay, dance/ movement, music, storytelling,
drama, creative writing, poetry, media, and play.
Sessions
also include a time of conversation where sense is made of the feelings
and thoughts that have emerged during the arts experience.
With a
creative arts practitioner/therapist as your companion you can explore questions
creatively: How do I experience my life? How do I connect with others, the
world and myself? What meanings do my lived experiences hold? What
possibilities are there? How will I choose to be in my life? What do I need to
feel better.
Experiential
Creative Arts inquiry processes are accessible to individuals, groups, schools,
workplaces, organisations, children, adolescents, adults.
No
previous art experience or skill is needed.
“Learning to know more about
being is really always the purpose, in both counselling and education. We are
always reconstructing our perceptions, learning to understand our emotional
responses, sharpening our intuitions and trusting the reliability of our being
in experience. In doing this we can be more fully present in our experiences,
so that we can imagine the possible choices and make them. This results in a
strong feeling of being present to oneself as well as to others, a reliance on
oneself, as well as a respect for, and trust in, the others with whom we share
our lives.”(MIECAT)
