This is a study that aims to get a better understanding of the nature or purpose of the participants’ life experiences
who are involved with drug abuse while using Expressive Arts Therapy in group counseling. Thus the approach
used in this study is a qualitative study using a phenomenological design as this study focused on the process of
interpreting the meaning and purpose of the phenomenon interaction.Phenomenology refers to philosophical and
methodological perspectives that attempt to define and interpret the essence of the phenomena that make up the
knowledge of conscious experience. It is a philosophy research to find meaning, as opposed to describing "what a
person can see, feel and understand the availability of the direct and personal experience" (Moustakas, 1994).
