When children are forced out over and over again it makes them feel unwanted or that they did something wrong. Patricia George writes, “Shuttling children off to a strangers home for a period of days or weeks, only to be potentially shuttled off to another home… simply underscores the frightening and traumatic experience of seeing ones family fall apart” (George and Walker).

In some cases, siblings will never see each other for years or even ever

It enables the patient to have a more interactive and collaborative approach in their healthcare, share responsibility and maintain their dignity and values. It involves a bio-psychosocial perspective to healthcare as opposed to a biomedical attitude. In order to provide patient centred care, the clinician needs to consider the individual’s needs
One of the core beliefs in the Expressive Arts Therapy was the non-verbal connections between all art modalities. By moving between art forms through connection in the creative process, it enabled one to heighten and intensify their inner journey (Rogers, 1993).

The modern society often treated art-making as a skill-required activity and critical judgement were given to the artworks and the artists.
