FREE ART THERAPY SESSION

Welcome to my Free Art Therapy Session – A Gift of Relaxation and Creativity

Thank you for your interest in this special art therapy session! This is my Christmas gift to anyone who'd like to receive it, inspired by the way art has helped me find healing, peace, hope and joy. I’m excited to share this with you, offering a gentle, creative space for anyone looking to unwind, express themselves, and experience the calming benefits of art.

Session Details:

• Two Session Options: One session will be virtual via Zoom, and the other will be held face-to-face.
• Duration: Each session will run for two hours, so please arrive on time to allow yourself space to relax, settle in, and respect others’ time.
• Bring Your Own Materials: All you need are your own art supplies. Bring anything you’d like to work with, whether it’s pencils, markers, paints, pastels, scissors, glue, and other crafting materials. If you're joining with friends, you can share materials with them as long as you'll work individually - own canvas, board paper, or watercolor paper. 
• Non-Clinical: A non-clinical art session is a relaxed, informal space for creating art, without any therapeutic diagnoses, treatment plans, or structured clinical goals. Unlike clinical art therapy, which is often guided by licensed art therapists to address mental health issues, a non-clinical art session focuses on self-expression, creativity, and personal relaxation.
• Non-Academic: A non-academic art session is an art-making experience that is free from the formal structure, grading, and skill-building focus typical in academic settings. Unlike classes that aim to teach specific techniques, styles, or art theory, a non-academic art session is informal and self-directed, emphasizing enjoyment and personal expression rather than instruction or evaluation.
• Limited Slots Available: Since spaces are limited, pre-registration is required. Simply choose the date that works best for you.
• Participants: This art session warmly welcomes participants aged 16 and up, making it a great opportunity for both teens and adults to explore their creativity in a relaxed, inclusive environment. 

Whether you’re a seasoned artist or simply curious, this session is designed to be accessible and enjoyable for all skill levels.With no formal instruction, grades, or clinical focus, you can come as you are and create in a space free from judgment or pressure. It’s a chance to reconnect with your creative side, meet others, and unwind in a supportive atmosphere.
