The work I have done as an art therapist, with adult clients who suffer from Mental Retardation, Developmental Disabilities and other intellectual deficits. Using art and music making, sign language and sensory integration methods, the strategy and aim is to enhance communication skills and the overall quality of life of each student. This is especially important when working with clients who only rely on body language as their main source of communication. In addition, my work experience has given me the tools for effective behavioral management techniques with clients who exhibit mal-adaptive behaviors.
