Holistic Treatment

Art Therapy provides our clients with a chance to creatively express their emotions when pain, traumas and mental health struggles can be difficult to put into words. Art therapy engages a client through the use of collage, painting, drawing, writing and sculpture as well as other creative media to offer a pathway of accessing core feelings of self and as an outlet for creative self-expression and nervous system regulation.

This group led by our professional instructor assists clients in achieving more focus, relaxation, peace of mind and overall well-being. Her weekly groups focus on creating a deeper connection with one’s true self. During this group, client’s learn about the practice of mindfulness and mindful awareness. Offering various meditation techniques, clients learn to identify their thoughts, emotions and body sensations with the goal of learning to manage these sensations that arise in the body and how to self-regulate them. These meditations may also help increase energy, compassion, and patience. This group provides a non-judgmental space of identifying and accepting all that arises in the body and mind. 

Reiki is an energy healing technique in which a Reiki master (who has undergone formal training in this healing art) uses gentle hand movements with the intention to guide the flow of healthy energy (what’s known in Reiki as life force energy) through the client’s body to reduce stress and promote healing.

Led by our Registered Dietician Nutritionist, this group offers clients a set of learning experiences around understanding and hopefully adopting a nutritional way of eating, supplementing and incorporating other-nutrition-related behaviors into their daily routines.  Nutrition is an integral part of mental health and substance abuse recovery and to living a healthy and balanced life. This is a voluntary group with researched based education as well as opportunities for open discussion and questions regarding nutrition, diet and trend topics.
