Helping caregivers reclaim their identity, voice, needs, and story

When you care for someone living with mental illness, their needs can gradually occupy the entire frame. This four-part creative workshop invites caregivers to turn some attention back toward themselves. Through mixed-media activities, gentle reflection, supportive conversation, and guided journaling, participants explore who they are beyond caregiving, what they carry, what supports them, and what they want to reclaim. No writing or artistic talent or experience is necessary! Only a willingness to be curious. Participants may share as much or as little as they choose. Each session is two hours and builds toward a new, meaningful personal portrait.
