The arts therapies represent an area of psychotherapy that encourages emotional expression and psychological healing through involvement in a creative process.
In Plymouth, the needs of people with learning disabilities experiencing psychological distress are met by this service, providing specialist counselling, art and music therapy.
Following referral, a period of assessment is offered to ensure the particular approach is suitable for the person and their needs.
Speaking to an arts therapist or specialist counsellor prior to making a referral is recommended, to ensure this is a suitable option and will help to speed the process up.
