WAIVER ART THERAPY

​ART Z is certified through PA Department of Human Services and Office of Developmental Programs to provide individual art therapy sessions for those using the following waivers:

 

  • Consolidated Waiver

  • Person/Family Directed Waiver

 

Our therapeutic focus is on improving, maintaining, or preventing regression of the individual's health and well-being.  We will help an individual to learn, retain or improve the skills necessary for living and working in the community.

​

We have an exceptional record of success by listening, then using the creative process for assessment, therapy and evaluation.

You do not need to have any experience in the arts!  These therapies are not skill-based and simply aid in our communication.  Those seeking support for a physical, emotional or behavioral health issue, such as chronic illness, grief and loss, depression/anxiety, a life transition or other challenge will revel in how well these processes accelerate the therapeutic process.

Please complete the following steps prior to scheduling a session:

​

  1. Obtain a Letter of Medical Necessity for art therapy from PCP

  2. Obtain denial of health insurance coverage for art therapy

  3. Add art therapy to Individual's ISP

  4. Contact Art Z by phone 215-262-4443 or email info@artzonline.org for a complimentary phone consultation and to schedule an assessment session

​

We're happy to support you every step of the way. 

Don't hesitate to ask for assistance!

ART THERAPY

 

The American Art Therapy Association (AATA) defines art therapy as a “profession that uses the creative process of art making to improve and enhance the physical, mental and emotional well-being of individuals of all ages."

 

An art therapist uses the creative process of self-expression to help clients identify and resolve conflicts and unhealthy behaviors, better manage relationships, reduce stress, increase self-esteem and self-awareness, and achieve insight.
