Where words fail, art prevails. Conventional psychotherapy depends greatly direct verbal communication from the client. Many a time, this can be overwhelming and can put the client 'under the microscope'. Hence, using an art form (drumming, body percussion, singing / chanting, painting, creative movement, contact improvisation, rhythm games, creative writing etc) can help break the ice, build a strong foundation fo trust, and bring out genuine behaviour that might have otherwise been hidden.
