ART THERAPY


Reportage on art therapy in Ham hospital’s long-stay unit, France. Art therapy sessions are offered to residents in order to maintain or rehabilitate their motor, cognitive and sensory functions as well as social ties. The art therapist attaches great importance to self-esteem. She considers that touch, contact and considerate gestures are vital for the success of the workshops.
