art therapy with the elderly

I've used story box work with a day care centre in Manchester a few years ago.  The group I was working with seemed to like it very much. This was with people who suffered with Dementia disorders.  This link is an interesting take on this work as well.

Call me to discuss my practice and find out more about my specialisms. As well as being an Art Therapist, I am a Theraplay practioner as well.  In brief, this is a therapy used to help children (all ages) to bond with their primary carers.  It's used a lot with children that have been adopted.  This is the Family Futures website where you can find out more about Theraplay:
