Summary

Children with developmental delays or disabilities show improvements in their tolerance for frustration, motivation, and spontaneous initiation when participating in our intervention programs. With our art therapy, we will appropriately make adjustments in creative modes based on specific diagnoses, development age and physiological limitations. Emphasizing a partially self-directed and spontaneous work mode for children also multiplies the effectiveness of various intervention programs.

Challenge

Children with developmental delays or disabilities need to improve their resilience, motivation, and spontaneity in class. Additionally, when those children desire to make their own decisions or complete tasks independently in their daily lives, they may experience a lot of frustration and dissatisfaction because their abilities to speak or act have not caught up. They may also struggle with successfully expressing their needs and feeling misunderstood, leading to a sense of defeat.

Solution

Art therapy is a form of psychotherapy that uses artistic mediums for therapeutic purposes including expressive arts therapy. We adjust the creative modalities based on specific diagnoses, age, physiological limitations, and also help the child explore themselves. To value the child's partial control and spontaneity, art therapy integrates communication skills, motor abilities, sensory integration, focus, and self-awareness, enhancing the effectiveness of speech, and physical therapy sessions.

Long-Term Impact

Art therapy can help stabilize emotions and improve concentration in learning. The autonomy in movement allows children to integrate their learning into activities related to daily life skills which contribute to a smoother development for their future. Art therapy not only benefits the growth of children but also helps develop their self-confidence. As the therapeutic needs of children decrease, the social care costs can also be relatively reduced, making it a triple-win service solution.
