For Therapists Only

Make self-care a priority by connecting with other therapists using art in a supportive environment.

Join us for this 5-month group (meeting once monthly for 2 hours) as we support each other in exploring how art therapy can sustain and revitalize us as therapists and thus enhance our work with clients. Each of the five group meetings will introduce a theme with hands-on use of art therapy interventions and materials related to this theme.

The rhythm of each 2-hour session will include:

  • Check-in with each participant
  • Body scan and progressive relaxation
  • Theme and direction in art exploration
  • Sharing of what emerges and closure

These groups have been a support to therapists for many years and provide a much-needed respite from the stress of working during these difficult times.

Group Schedule:

Call to see when the next 5-month session begins.

Registration Fees:

$300.00 for 5-month session
