This services provides support through art therapy to schools in the boroughs of Kensington & Chelsea and Westminster that do not have a Mental Health Support Team (MHST) provision.
We deliver 1:1 and group art therapy for children and young people in specialist provision education. Art therapy supports children and young people with SEND by helping with their social, emotional and psychological development. Through customised interventions, our goal is to establish a supportive and nurturing environment where individuals can explore their creativity, express themselves and cultivate essential skills for personal growth. The therapeutic potential of art provides a different way to express thoughts and feelings when words can be difficult to find. By building self-esteem, self-expression and resilience, art therapy contributes to the overall wellbeing and development of children and young people.
