Expressive Arts Therapies utilize the arts as a way of fostering human growth; develop self awareness, insight and self expression, facilitating positive life change and enrichment. Art Therapies differ from art as an activity; focusing more on the process rather than the... product. The Cancer Center at Chandler Regional Medical Center will provide cancer patients and co-survivors (family and those in the caregiving role) with music therapy, journaling, and art therapy with the following goals/expected outcomes:

• Decrease anxiety, stress and pain

• Increase positive mood, body awareness, and emotional health

• Increase physical and emotional strength

• Build social networks for support; and

• Facilitate the mind/body connection

Come to one class, all classes or somewhere in between! “Drop Ins” welcome!

Tuesday's Art Therapy Class will offer opportunities for self expression regarding the cancer journey through various artistic modalities such as painting, sculpture, drawing, etc. All art materials will be provided.
