Association for Person Centred Creative Arts - APCCA
A person centred pluralistic ethos
Our approach based on understanding that creativity is crucial. It promotes empathy, non-directivity, and self expression, self-understanding and of course creativity. It can be used with adults, children, couples, and groups.
Person-centred creative arts therapy models were first developed around 50 years ago, and are an effective, powerful and a deeply transformative therapeutic approach. Our pluralistic perspective also places the client at the heart of therapy, and our approach draws on a range of concepts to collaboratively work with clients to support the therapeutic creative process.
