走在艺术治疗路上的我 （一）

一)

这几个月很专心的在实习。
从大人到小孩，
我一关关的体会，
陪伴他们，
去探索未知的’自己‘。

前两天，
一个问题，
竟然勾起A的情绪，
那是他多么小心隐藏在心底的记忆感觉啊！

我再次感受到某些媒材在某个阶段确实能唤起我们的情绪。
B也说，
他依照我给他的提示做了某个作业，
怎知画完以后，
几天都不能入眠。

二)
C、D、E .......越来越多人打电话给我。
听着他们的问题，
再看着时间表。
对不起，
实在无能为力，
那是我的limitation。
如果不能接纳时间和体力的限制，
那艺术治疗的路我应该走不远。

那一头声音变得没有力，
我知道我的拒绝让他们感觉快要握到手的绳子。。。。。。
突然断了，
无助，
失望。

————————————————
三)

从别人身上的故事，
我越来越珍惜自己的生活是如此的顺利，美好。
这个过程里，
获得最多的反而是我自己。

看他们的画，
对他们说的话，
都是对我的一种提醒。

这份工作让我做我能做的事，
又能帮到他们走出这个阶段，
那份喜悦是难以形容的。

我也非常感谢他们，
因为他们的信任，
成就了我的学习和幸福。

四)

画画时G突然抬起头说，
“那么多人把垃圾倒给你。”

我一下子惊住了。
有些喜悦，
因为他有能力为我担心。

是啊，
之前还未毕业时不知道原来间接的承接别人的情绪是很危险的事。
以前如果我连续2天聆听几个人的故事后，
病魔一定找上门。

这样几次下来，
我才知道是自己的内在不够强壮，
因为忘记去把情绪垃圾给倒掉。

一直到我上健身房运动以后，
满满的能量又回来了，
而且我还可以连续处理很多很多的个案。

想到这里，
我也抬起头回应他，
”如果我不行了，
你一定见不到我。
如果你见到我，
那个我必定是个很有能量的我，
准备好来陪伴你探索。“

我笑着说。

What is Therapeutic Art?

To answer that, let us look at some charts and questions.

Below is a chart for a day in the life of a Malaysian preschooler and primary school student during a weekday.




Currently, the majority of families are a dual-income household (Resources: Asian Social Science; Vol. 9, No. 6; 2013 ISSN 1911-2017 E-ISSN 1911-2025 Published by Canadian Center of Science and Education 

After school, most children are sent straight to a daycare center during the weekday while waiting for their parents to return home from work. In the chart, we can see that children spend 11 hours away from their parents.

Question 1:

Do children acquire enough ability to cope in their daily life during these 11 hours without parents when they face stress in learning, challenges in their social life or when they are bullied?

The government educational blueprint request students to equip themselves with the specific skills and attributes as shown below (Preliminary Report Malaysia Education Blueprint 2013-2025 Pg 30-Pg 31).

1.   Knowledge

2.   Thinking skill

3.   Leadership skills

4.   Bilingual proficiency

5.   Ethics and Spiritually

The school focuses on written examinations to enhance students’ knowledge, thinking skills and bilingual proficiency (Preliminary Report Malaysia Education Blueprint 2013-2025 Pg 103).

Question 2

How do children fulfill leadership skills, ethics and spiritual aspects to prepare them to rise to the challenges they will inevitably face in adult life? Increasingly being able to lead and work effectively with others is critical in our interconnected world.

Dolphiner Therapeutic art is a psychology based enrichment program that aims to support these social issues and hope to make a positive contribution.


What Can Dolphiner Therapeutic Art Do for You and Your Child

•   Reveal children’s strength to perform and face challenges when parents are not around. 
•  Explore sweet family memories instead of managing the children 
•  Cultivate children’s initiative to take care of their personal hygiene, emotions and belongings 

Therapeutic Art is….

• Taught by a licensed therapy practitioner
• Taught in a confidential setting
• Focus on building up a person’s confidence and other life skills to face unknown life challenges
• A program designed based on psychological framework
• Non-technical. Focus on connecting inner-self with art materials during the art making process and not on the final outcome

In other words Dolphiner Therapeutic Art gives a child/teenager/adult a space to express their indescribable hidden emotions through drawing. It helps people to communicate what he or she sometimes find difficult to put into words through their drawing, painting and other artwork. People are able to build their confidence, understanding of self and enhance a variety of social skills during the art making process.

（Note: Dolphiner Therapeutic Art classes in Batu Pahat, Johor will be opened  soon ! )
