Empowering lives through
creativity and innovation 

Providing credentialed expressive arts therapy in Saskatoon and area for more than 20 years.

Addressing trauma, building capacity

Everyone has the capability to change, even if that capability seems hidden or has been lost due to trauma. We help people build capacity in themselves, providing professional guidance to grow and enhance their quality of life.

Expressive therapy

Expressive therapy is the practice of incorporating art, music, play, drama, and dance into talk therapy sessions held by credentialed practitioners. Expressive therapy activities and exercises use creativity to facilitate growth, healing, and change.

Art therapy

The Canadian Art Therapy Association describes art therapy as combining the creative process and psychotherapy using imagery, colour and shape. As part of this creative therapeutic process, thoughts and feelings can be expressed that would otherwise be difficult to articulate.

Music therapy

Music therapists use music and musical elements to support clients as they develop communication, mental health, emotional health, and physical health through movement and range of motion.

Psychotherapy

A way to treat mental health issues, psychotherapy is where people talk to a mental health provider to learn about their specific issues and how thoughts, emotions and behaviours affect moods. It’s also called talk therapy, counselling, or simply, therapy.

Art and music therapy can help people build their innate capacity to heal.

Who is art therapy for?

For some people, art therapy can circumvent months of talk therapy, giving participants a way to get at the heart of the matter without feeling threatened or uncomfortable.

Art therapy is an effective way to help people mobilize themselves to change and adapt, which is why it's particularly good for marginalized people, like those in the 2SLGBTQ community, refugees, and new Canadians.
