Art therapy may enable the expression of inner thoughts or feelings when verbalization is difficult or not possible. Some evidence suggests that creative expression programs in schools involving art therapy may help alleviate problems of self-esteem and can improve social functioning in school age children. However, there is some evidence suggesting that art therapy may not benefit children with PTSD symptoms. Limited evidence suggests that art therapy, in the context of group psychotherapy, may contribute to reduction of symptoms of emotional distress in military personnel receiving mental health treatment.
