Art therapy uses the power of art and creativity for therapeutic benefit. It is all about the process and the insights--no skill or art experience required! I am offering individual art therapy sessions on Tuesdays between 10 am - 3 pm Central Standard Time starting March 2, 2021, as part of my practicum for the Diploma in Indigenized Art Therapy, at the WHEAT Institute, Winnipeg. I am a settler l
iving in Treaty 6 Territory, Homeland of the Métis. I am offering space that will allow you to get acquainted with your own "brave space" in which images, dreams, colours, shapes, and words help us tap into inner resilience. As part of decolonizing, I intend my practice to include an anti-racist lens and welcome clients of all backgrounds, identities, genders, and sexualities. To register, copy and paste this link: https://www.wheatinstitute.com/online-art-therapy (there is a clickable link in my page information). You will need to scroll to the bottom of the page and fill in my name, Karen Fraser Gitlitz, to request me as your therapist. Creative expression can help us express ourselves, gain insight, and connect (or reconnect) to our sources of strength. When we walk a healing path—mind, spirit, heart, and body—we are healing our ancestors and our communities, as well as ourselves.
