The CO. is a Chatham, Ontario studio focused on art & therapy. We offer creative arts therapy for kids, teens & young adults, an artist in residence program as well as art classes & workshops.
Creative arts therapy is a form of expressive therapy that improves a person’s physical, mental and emotional well-being through the process of creating art. Creative arts therapy offers a different non-verbal approach to therapy and can allow expression through art material, music, movement, and imaginative play.
Creative arts therapy can help people of all ages:
– express themselves
– explore their emotions
– Improve self-esteem
– reduce stress
– increase problem-solving skills
– improve social skills
– improve coping strategies
