Art therapy is a therapeutic approach that can help cancer patients manage their anxiety and stress by making their physical and psychological emotions visible through creativity and images.
It allows us to make visible and give voice to often indescribable emotions and experiences through artistic expression. It helps to discover oneself, bring out past or present traumas, stimulate creativity, and replace negative inner images with positive images of peace and serenity.
Art therapy can help increase understanding of oneself, the disease, and its treatment, promoting a better acceptance of the disease.
