Creative Child Therapy at Lighthouse Therapy Hub: Using Creative Arts
At Lighthouse Therapy Hub, we recognise that children often express their thoughts, feelings, and experiences through creative and playful methods rather than words. Our Creative Child Therapy uses Creative Arts Therapies—including art, play, music, and movement—offering a powerful, engaging way for children to explore their emotions, process experiences, and build resilience in a safe, supportive environment.
What is Creative Child Therapy?
Creative Child Therapy is a therapeutic approach designed specifically for children, using artistic and playful methods to help them express emotions, develop coping skills, and work through challenges. Whether your child is dealing with anxiety, trauma, behavioural issues, grief, or social difficulties, our therapists at Lighthouse Therapy Hub use creative arts to connect with children at their developmental level and provide a space where they feel free to express themselves without pressure.
The Role of Creative Arts in Therapy

Children often struggle to articulate their emotions in words, but they naturally express themselves through creativity and play. By integrating art, play, and music into therapy, we offer children an accessible and enjoyable way to communicate their feelings, process difficult experiences, and make sense of their world.
What to Expect

At Lighthouse Therapy Hub, we offer a variety of Creative Arts Therapies tailored to each child’s needs, including:
• Art Therapy: Children can express their feelings through drawing, painting, or sculpting, which helps them externalize emotions and understand their inner experiences.
• Play Therapy: Using toys, dolls, and role-playing, children can recreate situations and safely explore their feelings in a way that feels natural and familiar.
• Music Therapy: Through making music, listening to sounds, or using rhythm and movement, children can process emotions and enhance self-expression in a non-verbal way.
• Sand Tray Therapy: Children use miniature figures and objects in a sandbox to create scenes that reflect their inner world, helping them process emotions and difficult experiences.
Benefits of Creative Arts Therapy for Children
• Emotional Expression: Offers children a safe and non-verbal way to express emotions, especially those they may struggle to articulate.
• Stress and Anxiety Reduction: Provides calming and soothing activities to help children manage overwhelming feelings.
• Improved Self-Esteem: Through creativity, children gain confidence and feel empowered as they explore their feelings and experiences.

A Safe Space for Growth and Healing

Using creative arts, we support your child’s emotional and developmental growth while helping them navigate life’s challenges in a way that feels playful, meaningful, and empowering.
Together, we illuminate their path forward, helping them to thrive emotionally, socially, and creatively.

Adolescent Therapy at Lighthouse Therapy Hub: Using Creative Arts

At Lighthouse Therapy Hub, we understand that adolescence can be a challenging time filled with emotional, social, and personal changes. To support young people through this pivotal stage of life, we offer Adolescent Therapy with a unique focus on Creative Arts Therapies. Creative arts provide a powerful, non-verbal way for adolescents to express themselves, explore their emotions, and develop coping skills in a safe and supportive environment.

What is Adolescent Therapy?

Drama and Role-Playing: Acting out scenarios helps adolescents process interpersonal issues, build confidence, and explore new perspectives.
