Integrating art materials into wellness programs can assist with facilitating the expression of emotion and the development of healthy coping strategies. Here at Akron ArtWorks, all therapeutic activities are organized as wellness groups for kids, tweens, teens or adults and are overseen by co-owner, Dr. Karin Coifman, a licensed clinical psychologist. Our groups integrate the use of art materials to reduce stress and anxiety and to increase self-esteem and self-confidence. Each group is facilitated by highly-trained therapists, well-experienced in the integration of art into therapeutic activities.
