School Groups

Our facilitators work with students to create a safe, all inclusive space. Here students learn through a multi-modal psycho-educational approach.

We invite students to creatively problem solve, learning new communication strategies and skills, sharing common themes which reduce stigma, anxiety and isolation. Students engage with art materials and art making, sharing through circle time, games, mindfulness, storytelling, poetry and movement.

In utilising the creative arts students are able to express themselves in a multi-dimensional sense, thereby encompassing the ‘whole’ self.

‘Seasons of Growth’ Sessions

Suitable for ages 6 to 18 years.

Alice is a trained Seasons of Growth Facilitator.

‘Seasons of Growth is an education program that builds the resilience and wellbeing of children who have recently experienced loss due to death, family separation or migration. Seasons for Growth aims to support young people to understand their feelings, help them develop skills for coping, restore self-confidence and educate them about the grief process. The program is underpinned by evidence about resilience, emotional competence and identity.’

Wellbeing Days

We live in a fast-paced culture where it is hard to switch off and slow down. Often our ‘to-do’ lists and productivity goals are blurred across our personal lives and the workplace. In reality, the cliché statement ‘health is wealth’ actually rings true. We find that productivity and satisfaction in all aspects of life increases when we are able to find balance and form healthy habits.

When we are only defined by our roles in the world, or the labels that we give ourselves, we tend to forget our common thread; our humanity. It is a focus on our human needs and wellbeing that will prevent us from burning out.

Wellbeing Days provide people in the workplace or community with a safe and nurturing environment to practice this important work. With time to reflect, connect and reset.

At Creative Space Counselling we bring a balance of play, creativity, reflection and response, where individual needs are met and creative solutions are discovered. The day is structured around the specific needs of the group and incorporates different approaches to the wellbeing model. We often use meditation and mindfulness practices, journaling, art making, movement, storytelling and collage to name a few.

Participants will leave having learnt new skills or may even build on their existing skill set.

Wellbeing Days can be held for a morning, an afternoon or over a day. Please email us for further enquiries.
