Change can be difficult and sometimes overwhelming – whether that’s a change in relationship, address, employment, retirement, new responsibilities like a baby or aging parent, or illness. It can feel like a lot.
Art therapy can support you through the uncertainties and stress of these changes and provide an outlet to release built-up tension.

How Does Art Therapy Help With Life Transition?
-
Art therapy can be helpful in addressing multiple feelings at the same time – excitement, worry, loss, fear, etc. – during a time of transition.
It can provide a safe and contained space for you to express your emotions and subconscious thoughts in art and work with an art therapist who can help you process them.
-
Transitioning to a new phase of life can bring up feelings of loss of the past and what’s familiar.
Art therapy can help explore and process these feelings, and make meaning of the transition so that you can come to a place of acceptance and develop hope for the future.
-
Life transitions can be stressful. Art therapy can provide the tools to manage stress and encourage mindfulness and relaxation.
-
Life transitions can bring up a change of identity – potentially needing to reevaluate values and how you see yourself.
Art therapy can help support you through this process. It allows an opportunity for you to step back, look inside and identify your strengths (Chambala, 2008). It encourages self-exploration through art and working with your strengths to navigate challenging times.
