Teen Art Activities Workbook | 9 Printable Counseling Worksheets for Teens

Help teens explore emotions, stress, relationships, self-talk, boundaries, and coping in a way that feels creative and approachable.

This printable workbook includes 9 art-based therapeutic activities designed to support meaningful conversations during counseling sessions, therapy groups, school social work, SEL lessons, and individual check-ins. Each page gives teens space to draw, write, reflect, and process without requiring them to immediately answer direct questions out loud.

These activities are especially helpful for students who may struggle to explain what they are feeling or who engage more easily through visual and creative expression.

• Inside Out

Explore the difference between what others see and what may be happening internally.

• My Connection Constellation

• The Anger Iceberg

Explore what others see when anger shows up and the feelings, needs, or body signals that may be underneath it.

• My Boundary Garden

Explore personal needs, values, limits, support, and healthy boundary-setting.

• Tiny Steps, Different Day

Help teens identify one manageable change that could increase connection, enjoyment, or accomplishment.
