Nicki Elischer Art Therapy
Groups
The Caring Creative group is for parents who are looking to create space for self-care, in community with others. Parenting takes a tremendous amount of energy, and this group is a space to rest, reflect, and recharge. Therapeutic art experiences are used to connect with your own intuitive guidance and to allow your nervous system to return to calm. Art-making is purely explorational and no art experience is necessary. Art making is for absolutely everyone and can involve collaging, drawing, scribbling, building, weaving, ripping, and collecting.
* Childminding is available!
An in-person 4-session group will run on Mondays from
Nov 18th - Dec 9th, 2024,
from 11-12:30
at This Worlds Ours Centre
191 East 10th Avenue, Vancouver
The Coping Creative group is for kids ages 7-12 who have experienced the loss of someone close to them. This is an art-based group that uses painting and making to explore emotions and talk about the person that is missed. It is a safe space to connect with a small group of peers who are also experiencing grief and loss, and to create memory-keeping items that provide a continuing connection with a loved one.
An in-person, 4-session group will take place on Sundays from May 5 to May 26, 2024 from 3:30-4:30pm on Granville Island
An online group is also in the works! If you are interested in an online art-based grief support group in 2024, please fill in the contact below to let me know your child's age and availability.
