At Dakhari Psychological Services in Moorestown, NJ, we provide professional art therapy to help children, teens, and adults explore emotions, manage stress, and build resilience. You don’t need to be “artistic” to benefit—our sessions focus on the process of creative expression, not the final product.
Whether you’re navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, or life transitions, art therapy offers a safe and supportive way to discover your inner strength.
Art therapy is a form of psychotherapy that uses drawing, painting, sculpting, and other creative techniques to
encourage self-expression and healing.
Guided by a licensed Art Therapist, you’ll use self-expression as a tool to:
Express emotions and experiences that may be difficult to put into words
Explore new perspectives and gain insight into thoughts, behaviors, and patterns
Relieve stress, release tension, and create space for calm
Develop healthy coping skills and build long-term resilience
Improve self-confidence and strengthen identity
Enhance problem-solving, flexibility, and focus
Unlike traditional talk therapy alone, art therapy gives you another pathway to process experiences and move toward well-being.

Remember: it’s not about artistic talent. It’s about the process of creating and the meaning behind it. The insights gained often lead to breakthroughs in understanding, healing, and confidence.
Art therapy can support emotional and psychological well-being across many areas, including:
Anxiety & Stress – calming the nervous system and reducing racing thoughts
Depression – boosting mood and self-expression
Trauma & PTSD – providing a safe way to process difficult experiences
Grief & Loss – honoring memories and finding resilience
Behavioral & Emotional Challenges in Children – improving regulation and communication
Are you or someone you love feeling weighed down by stress, anxiety, or emotional challenges? Life’s demands don’t pause or wait for us to “feel ready” to cope.
Adults often juggle the pressures of work, relationships, and responsibilities, while children and teens face the complexities of school, friendships, and growing up.
Perhaps your child is struggling with focus, feeling left out among peers, or coping with bullying. Or maybe you’re experiencing your own challenges—sleepless nights, emotional ups and downs, or the weight of a major life change. If any of this feels familiar—like you’re barely keeping your head above water—know that you are not alone.
Art therapy offers a safe, supportive space to explore emotions, reduce overwhelm, and build inner strength. Through creative expression, you can access new perspectives, regulate difficult feelings, and discover resilience you didn’t know you had.
This isn’t about creating perfect artwork. It’s about using imagination as a pathway to healing. In our sessions, you’ll be guided by an experienced therapist who helps you tap into your creativity, uncover insights, and move toward balance and well-being.
