SUMMARY:Art Therapy for OCD\, Anxiety and Depression
DESCRIPTION:Using imagery as a creative reflection tool\, participants will explore their own experiences\, voices\, stories\, and hopes for change through art.\nUsing Storyteller cards to invite expression and observation\, we will explore these questions: \nHow do we tell our stories?\nHow do we find our voices? \nParticipants will be guided through these enquiries by combining response art\, journal words and the making of our own Story teller card \nWhy Art Therapy :\nAn arts-based approach offers a creative and accessible way to explore and express personal experiences\, thoughts and emotions that can sometimes be difficult to communicate through words alone. Using the cards as creative prompts encourages individual interpretation\, self-expression and shared understanding\, while giving participants choice and control over what they wish to explore and share.\nThis approach supports the theme “Lived Experience\, Real Voices\, Real Change” by creating space for diverse perspectives\, creativity and meaningful reflection.

SUMMARY:Faith and OCD Conference
DESCRIPTION:October 29\, 2026 | Virtual\n\n\n\n\nFor individuals and families\, faith leaders\, and professionals.\nThis unique event began out of the recognition that many people living with OCD initially seek assistance from a faith leader before a mental health provider. The conference was specifically created to address the needs of a diverse community — spanning all faiths\, ethnicities\, and backgrounds. We’ll provide education about effective treatment and ways to support those in the faith community living with OCD.
