Navigate the colourful chaos of family life with us! Join our art therapy session and let creativity be your guide to harmony and healing!
Creating an art therapy session centered around family dynamics can help participants explore and understand their family relationships, roles, and communication patterns. Start with a warm welcome, introducing yourself and the session’s purpose, followed by a brief icebreaker where participants share a positive family memory or describe their family using three words.
Facilitate a group discussion about family dynamics, asking questions like “What roles do you play within your family?” and “How do you communicate with family members?”, encouraging personal reflection on their own family experiences. Introduce the art project, where participants create a visual representation of their family dynamics, using materials like paper, paints, markers, and collage items.
During the art creation, encourage them to express their feelings about their family through their art, with gentle guidance and background music to create a comfortable environment. Once the artworks are complete, have a sharing session where participants explain what their pieces represent and how they reflect their family dynamics, fostering a supportive atmosphere with positive feedback.
Conclude with a reflection activity, asking participants to consider how creating art helped them understand their family dynamics, summarizing key points, and encouraging them to continue exploring their family relationships through art.
This structured approach provides a balanced mix of discussion, creativity, and reflection, creating a rich and meaningful experience for participants.
