Art Therapy: Healing Emotional Trauma Through Creativity
The Daily Star
The word "create" has been derived from the Latin word creare, and this word is also etymologically associated with "growing." To create something is to do; to do is to produce, and this production bears both cognitive and social benefits for the subject involved in the task. The link between unconsciousness and art is a fascinating one, and art therapy can be very useful for patients suffering from severe mental health issues such as depression, dementia, anxiety and even post-traumatic stress disorder.
