Abstract

Abstract. The mental health of IDPs in modern Ukraine needs to be maintained both at the macro and micro levels due to the high level of daily stress. The purpose of this study is to unleash the potential of art-therapeutic methods to support IDPs to stabilize their mental state. The methodology of our research is based on theoretical methods of scientific knowledge. The potential of art therapy methods and group forms of work in the process of socially psychological support for IDPs is analyzed. The focus should be on resources available to the community, such as local museums, which can become the material basis for the restoration of social activity of people with disabilities and the spread of stress management practices in everyday life. The biggest limitation of this study is the lack of empirical data on the effects of using art therapy in Ukrainian museums. Among the positive aspects, it should be noted the prospect of improving the mental health of IDPs using art therapy in a museum. As a result, when working with IDPs, we suggest focusing on restoring a sense of security and a sense of belonging to the local population.
