Services
The Art Station is committed to providing effective, accessible services to our community. Clinical art therapy services are provided to children, adolescents, adults and families who reside in Fort Worth and surrounding areas. Services are provided by highly qualified mental health professionals who are dedicated to helping clients achieve their goals.
How We Can Help
The Art Station specializes in using art therapy principles within a therapeutic relationship. Therapists utilize different methods of treatment depending on client needs. Services provided include: assessments, individual, family, couples and group counseling, school-based groups, and community-based groups.
Clinical art therapy services are available for most ages. The Art Station staff generally works with school-aged children, teens and adults. While minimal communication and gross motor skills are necessary in art therapy, most services are adapted to the age and developmental needs of the individual client.
Issues that can be addressed in individual clinical art therapy are similar to those challenges that would bring someone to seek help from any mental health professional. Topics include, but are not limited to depression, trauma, relationship skills building, social skills building, and parenting.
To meet the needs of the community currently, The Art Station offers services Monday through Friday with additional evening and Saturday appointments available for client convenience.
Group Therapy
Some issues are better addressed with art therapy in a group format. Group topics are based on current client and community needs.
Please call our intake coordinator for more information about available groups.

Our Fees for Service
The Art Station is committed to serving individuals and families of all income levels and offers an array of payment options for counseling services. The standard counseling fee for service is $120.00 for one 60-minute individual or family counseling session and $45.00 for one group session. Financial assistance may be provided based on availability. The amount of assistance a family or individual qualifies for is based on the number of individuals living in the home and current household income.
The Art Station is participating as a provider for a number of insurance panels. Some examples of insurance plans currently accepted include Medicaid and CHIPS, Aetna, Blue Cross & Blue Shield, Cigna, Humana, United Healthcare, Tricare and Scott & White. Call if you do not see your insurance plan on this list.
Making An Appointment
All individual and group sessions are scheduled by appointment only. If you are interested in art therapy for you or your child, the first step is to contact our office so we can discuss the appropriate level of treatment. As a result of our generous financial assistance and our limited staff, we rarely have an immediate availability of services. Arrangements can be made to notify you when sessions become available and additional community resources will be provided if needed.
