Truly transformative, this 6-week therapy group incorporates a trauma informed, person centered approach using psychoeducation and expressive arts therapy to increase self-awareness, self-regulation, and a positive self-reference. Creative exercises throughout encourage members to reflect on their lived experiences from their own perspective.

This small group will be facilitated by our Individual Therapist and Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying), Deepika Birdi

‍Group sessions will be held at:

45 Sheppard Avenue East, Suit 900

Toronto, M2N 5N1
