Expressive Arts Group
Gina Balit 323-316-6425
Art therapy, music, dance, play, drama, and other expressive therapies are part of the expressive arts as adjunct modalities and utilized as therapeutic interventions in various settings such as mental health clinics, educational settings, hospitals, recovery centers, retirement homes, and hospices. Tools such as painting, playing instruments, yoga, and writing poetry are used to aid in the healing process.
This Special Interest Group will likely meet monthly on Sundays (time and place to be discussed/determined). We will begin discuss the mission of the group and plans to offer expressive arts presentations, hands-on experiences, and clinical discussions about the expressive arts as a therapeutic modality. No need to be an artist or a registered therapist in these fields…just a an open mind and curiosity to learn about the healing power of these creative modalities in mental health.
Stay tuned for more detailed articles regarding expressive arts in our bi-monthly newsletter!
For questions, inquires or to join our group (must be a SFV-CAMFT chapter member), please contact our chair Gina Balit at gb1105@gmail.com.
