Art Therapy

Fostering Emotional Expression and Social Connection

The Rugby School at Woodfield integrates Art Therapy throughout the school day, providing students with a unique opportunity to explore their emotional landscape, behaviors, and relationships through creative expression. This evidence-based approach is facilitated by a qualified art therapist who collaborates with students to:

Develop self-awareness and understanding of their emotions.
Identify and address negative behavior patterns.
Gain insight into their relationships with others.
Promote self-discovery and a sense of empowerment

Beyond individual sessions, the program offers the Building Friendships Forever (BFF) program in small group settings. This program utilizes art-based activities to cultivate essential social and communication skills among students. The BFF program fosters:

Positive peer relationships and a sense of belonging within the school community.
Effective communication strategies for building lasting connections.
Collaborative problem-solving and social interaction skills.

The students work on their individualized goals including articulation, fluency, receptive and expressive language, pragmatic and social language and auditory and language processing. The therapist provides activities that are of high interest to each student to promote the successful progression of skills.

Shepherding

Our dedicated staff members visit the student's home to work with them and provide motivation and encouragement to attend school.

Throughout the process, our staff remains committed to offering ongoing support until the student achieves consistent attendance.
