I don't see why not, it is worth a try at any rate and can be got in some primary care trusts on the NHS. Just like more conventional forms of talking therapy, it tries to help patients to access things about themselves that they didn't otherwise know.
There's a bit of information about it at the British Association of Art Therapists website, but probably more useful is Rethink, a comprehensive website about mental health that includes a section on the various types of therapy.
If you ever want to let us know a bit more about your specific situation then please feel free, and I'm sure you'll get lots of helpful advice.
