Expressive Arts Therapy
Expressive Arts Therapy is a type of Creative Therapy that includes play and a variety of low-skill art experiences (such as visual arts, sound/music, movement/dance, drama, and creative writing). It helps you to feel relaxed and safe, allowing you to express your emotions and yourself. The therapist will suggest suitable art experiences based on your preferences and needs, and support you in gradually shifting towards mind-body balance. No prior art experience is required.

Service Feedback
Individual Therapy Participant- SA:
I found the expressive art therapy session by Liz to be very helpful to not only express, but also to also find a way to face what I previously ran away from. Her compassionate guidance allowed me to open up and unravel my thoughts and pent-up emotions. She created a safe space to release through a medium that I was comfortable with. Enabling me to gain insight into my innermost feelings and most importantly helping me to build confidence and equipping me with tools I can use to face my fears.
I greatly appreciated her thoughtfulness in attentively listening to what was spoken; the way she alternated the session to address what I needed to address the most and understanding the thoughts that I could not find the words to express through her interpretation of my drawing and behaviours.
I highly recommend Liz, as she is a therapist who practices with heart and wisdom. Read SA's Case Sharing
Individual Therapy Participant - Kit:
Expressive Arts Therapist Liz is wonderfully perceptive, and she creates a safe, comforting space where I feel at ease to express my thoughts, ideas, and feelings through different media. Thank you, Liz.
This was my first time trying expressive arts therapy. To be honest, the process wasn’t always straightforward or effortless. It wasn’t only about feeling free and comfortable—it was more like a mirror, helping me see my vulnerabilities and inner struggles more clearly. It wasn’t an easy journey, but it was absolutely worth it. Perhaps real growth and transformation require the courage to look back at the “moment I fell” and still find something within you to gather yourself—shake off the dust and stand back up again. So, thank you to myself as well.
Liz’s character and presence were key to the entire therapeutic experience. She genuinely helped me feel secure as I reflected on past experiences, and from them I was able to find strength. I hope everyone can experience this journey for themselves. Read Kit's Case Sharing
Individual Therapy Participant - N:
I had not encountered art therapy before, so I had very little sense of what it is about. Over the course of four sessions, the therapist tailored different art forms to suit my individual circumstances and needs.
I came to realise that the thoughts that arise and the creations that emerge during the creative process often reflect our deepest inner world. This enabled me to gain a clearer understanding of myself and to learn to acknowledge and accept my own inner longings and needs.
Individual Therapy Participant - Yat:
Thank you so much. Today’s art therapy session allowed me to experience a deeply healing power. Through the use of musical instruments and clay, I was able to release some childhood trauma and felt a sense of inner calm and relief.
It has genuinely helped me to face my past more openly. I’m very grateful for the support you’ve provided. Read Yat's Case Sharing
Individual Therapy Participant - Yat:
Thank you, Liz. Today’s session was truly very helpful. Through understanding my feelings and preferences, I’ve come to realise that I need to let go of the past.
I also recognised that I’m not the only child who has had to face racism. Being on my own is not as frightening as I once thought, and I see now that I should choose work that involves interacting with others.
Once again, I found the music therapy very helpful, and drawing was equally beneficial. Read Yat's Case Sharing
Group Participant - K:
To be honest, yesterday was my first time taking part in this kind of activity, but I gained far more from it than I had imagined.
Through your verbal and movement-based guidance, I was able to imagine myself as another kind of being, exploring myself within a different space. Drawing and craft were simply part of the process of self-expression, but your facilitation encouraged me to reflect much more deeply.
When I imagined the process of shedding my skin, I realised that whenever I encounter something that makes me uncomfortable, I instinctively try to escape from it as quickly as possible.
When I imagined having a bubble space entirely of my own, I discovered that I am actually someone who is deeply afraid of loneliness and in need of companionship.
When I imagined someone approaching my space, I began to understand the kind of boundaries I truly need.
I hadn’t realised that we could explore ourselves in this way.
Group Participant - G:
Thank you, Liz, for arranging the “Dream Teammates and Challenging Teammates” expressive arts therapy session for me. During the process, I was able to see my past, my present, and the future I had been projecting. I found reconciliation with my past self and learned to be gentler with who I am now.
In just over two hours, I experienced a healing journey filled with laughter.
