about

The Expressive Therapies Center’s purpose is to provide low-cost, high-quality mental health support in the form of alternative therapies through art, music and dance to people living in Northwest Ohio who suffer from the effects of Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) and/or psychological and emotional trauma.

a mission to heal​

The mission of the Expressive Therapies Center is to be the "loving hands and feet of Christ" to those whose psychological condition has left them marginalized, neglected, and hurting.
To offer hope where hope fades.
To offer comfort where comfort wanes.

But most importantly, to offer healing where healing seems impractical or impossible.

​our history

The Expressive Therapies Center initially set out to help soldiers, sailors, and airmen suffering the effects of Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). It has since expanded to include all victims of PTSD and trauma. The center itself is based upon the idea that beauty – especially that joyous beauty found in art, music and dance – can aid in the healing of the pain caused by traumatic experiences.

​our therapists

The expressive therapy field is growing as traditional and non-traditional mental health professionals develop a better understanding of the mind and body connection. Therapists in this field have discovered important therapeutic benefits of engaging in creative activities. Alternative therapies contribute to the healing process through the relearning of key social skills and the development of coping mechanisms that lead to improved self-esteem and confidence.
