A flourishing field

Hong Kong has seen a plethora of artists, NGOs and corporations getting involved in art therapy and expressive arts therapy in recent years. At Kwai Chung Hospital, expressive arts therapy is being used to build motivation and inspiration in 200 adults recovering from mental illness.

Joanna To has been working with NGOs to design and facilitate expressive arts therapy workshops for young people and the general public. Following stints at Tsz Shan Monastery and the Changing Young Lives Foundation, To established Arts for Change, offering individual and group workshops and therapy sessions that integrate expressive arts therapy with meditation.
