Art can enrich lives through helping individuals to understand and express themselves beyond what is possible through words. Art therapy can be empowering for women, It provides an opportunity to feel more in control of our lives by providing us with freedom to choose materials, style and subject matter and to create whatever we want to create. Art therapy provides distance and control, and thus provides a sense of safety and containment, which allows individuals to release built up tension and anxiety.
