Art Therapy Group

CatholicCare - Diocese of Broken Bay are excited to announce their new Art Therapy Group! This is for women where participants utilise art making to express thoughts and feelings that may be difficult to put into words. This group will provide a supportive and non-judgemental space to explore your creative side whilst also giving expression to feelings, thoughts and future hopes.

Facilitated by a registered Art Therapist, no artistic skills are required just an interest in the creative process. A variety of art materials will be supplied, and themes may be explored through the creative process supporting a safe connection to self and others in the group.

Some additional benefits of art therapy include improved communication skills, reduction in stress levels, an increase in self-esteem, personal insight, connecting with your strengths and exploring your imagination and creativity.

The cost for the 6 week package is $300 or $150 concession. If you have NDIS funding, this will cover these sessions.

Please call 1800 324 924 or email therapyservices@catholiccaredbb.org.au to register your interest.
