The Expressive Arts and Play Therapy Studio, located in Portland, Maine, offers children, adults, and families an opportunity to find fresh perspectives on, and new solutions to long-term problems or sticky situations. Suzanne Laberge, LCPC, REAT, offers over 25 years of experience as an Expressive Arts Therapist using creative means to encourage communication and healing.
Play is the language of children, so they become easily engaged with sand tray play, costume drama, art materials, percussion instruments and the other expressive play possibilities. The goal for children is to bring their feelings to words and to find other effective coping strategies. Adults can find that words fail, thoughts go in circles, and we feel stuck.
Rediscovering our playful creative selves is empowering and enlightening, resulting in self-awareness, new coping skills, improved relationships, and communication. Expressive Arts and Play Therapy are not "recipes" or "techniques", but individualized experiences that come from ancient healing techniques and are supported by current brain research.
