Creative Arts Therapies
Creative arts therapy is a mental health profession that uses active engagement in the arts to address the psychological, emotional, developmental, and psycho-social needs of individuals in order to help them maximize their potential through interactive play. Our therapists utilize various types of media and methodologies within a humanistic, relationship-based framework that focus on helping students foster social-emotional growth through a creative process and inherently growing therapeutic relationships through that process. Interactive play is essential for students’ well-being, as it helps promote creative thinking, emotional exploration and expression, communication and relatedness, all of which are necessary for learning and building meaningful relationships with others.

Imagine has developed a uniquely integrative approach that combines creatively what are usually seen as the two leading competing methods Applied Behavioral Therapy and DIR/Floortime.

“…They work together to understand our children’s learning style and needs, they have no agenda other than helping the kids learn and grow. Everyone shows competence and care that goes beyond the school day to give families the support needed at home and with everyday issues or emergencies.”

Imagine Academy has been a gift to my son and my entire family. Having been one of the first students enrolled in the school when it opened 14 years ago, Philip has grown up with the love, devotion and respect from the entire Imagine staff. Year after year, the focus has always been on giving him so many opportunities to become the best person that he was meant to be. We will forever be grateful to this school.
