About the event

In this session, we will examine what art therapy is and how it supports mental health. Participants will learn how to apply principles of art therapy to support their own and others' well-being, including children, youth, and students. Self-care practices for employees that use a range of creative arts will be demonstrated. This session is led by Dr. Jennifer Laffier, a licensed creative arts therapist.

The Mental Health in the Digital Age Lab team is based across Turtle Island, the traditional lands of many diverse Indigenous Nations and Peoples. We acknowledge and express deep gratitude to the Indigenous Peoples who have cared for and continue to protect the lands, waters and resources on which we live, work, and learn. As a team committed to well-being, equity, and community flourishing, we are dedicated to ongoing learning, unlearning, respect, and action in support of truth and reconciliation. We encourage everyone engaging with our work to learn about the Indigenous territories they are on and consider how they can support Indigenous communities. Click here to learn more.
