The Power of Creative and Expressive Arts Therapy

Every day at Children’s Hospital of Pittsburgh of UPMC, creative and expressive arts therapies are used as proven methods for helping children and adolescents cope with symptoms, stress, and traumatic experiences.

Meet the Patients


Matisse, transplant patient

“We could never have gotten through the past eight years without child life and music therapy. Their genuine care and empathy with Matisse is incredible. Their ability to distract her from her illness and entertain her when she needs them most is incredible,” Matisse’s mother.

 


Katie, transplant patient

"Without art therapy, it would be so different. The hospital back home doesn't have this avilable, and I am so happy to come here and have art-- it makes my day. I couldn't picture the hospital wihtout it. I'm really, really thankful you have this program," Katie.
