Art Therapy Session: ROAD OF ACCEPTANCE

During this workshop we make our own road maps representing our life experiences.

What does your road look like, & what are the obstacles?

Which give us an opportunity to identifying what is in our control and the things that are not. We explore acceptance, reduction of stress and ways to enhance self-esteem.

This workshop is facilitated by a qualified, practicing therapist/counsellor who is experienced working with grief and loss and is a trauma informed practitioner.

Materials participants will need: some paper (A4 print paper or similar) and any of the following: coloured pencils/felt pens/pens/paints.

The Forever Supporting Blokes support group is a group for the partners of women who have passed away from Breast Cancer. We understand how difficult it must be to lose your partner to breast cancer and we are here to support you. The group offers men a chance to meet people in a similar situation, share experiences and learn coping strategies. We discuss navigating life through grief in a safe space to share, learn and chat. The sessions are run by our Breast Care Nurse Consultant Jamie Kelly and we are often joined by a guest speaker to offer their expertise on a particular topic.

The Forever Supporting Blokes Group meets the first Wednesday of every month from 6.00pm-7.00pm. We appreciate that people have busy lives and we understand if you can only join for part of the session.

We would love to have you attend.
