This month marks four years of Helix Art Therapy, and what a journey it’s been! When I think back to the moment I stepped away from the comfort of years at a 9–5 art therapy position in a health centre to build a private practice, I remember how equal parts exhilarating and terrifying it felt.

Working in private practice has been a rollercoaster of learning, growth, and deep gratitude. It’s taught me that this work — much like the creative process itself — is organic and ever-evolving.

Over these four years, I’ve had the privilege of working in many ways: offering art therapy, clinical supervision, and therapeutic arts workshops across Canada. Each experience has reminded me of the incredible creativity, courage, and connection that emerge when we make space for healing.

Thank you for being part of this journey — whether you’ve been part of a therapeutic process, attended a workshop, shared a post, took part in the art exchange or simply followed along quietly. Your presence is part of what keeps Helix growing!

Since opening Helix’s Art Exchange, it’s been such a joy to peek in and see all the amazing projects and supplies being swapped! 🤓

We’ve received everything from crochet creations, painted rocks, ceramic pieces, felted art, bracelets, tiny paintings, and drawings—each one full of creativity and heart. 💕

And the supplies? So fun! Beads, crayons, cool pencils, glue, stickers, washi tape, ribbon, colouring pages, glitter—just to name a few. ✨

Thank you for participating and keep it coming!🎨♻️

Creative prompt : With colours, shapes and lines, create a visual representation of your inner landscape.

As the seasons are shifting, I invite you to creatively reflect on the season that inhabit you. Perhaps it matches what is taking place in your environment; shift in temperatures, shorter days, changing colours… or perhaps is something entirely different. Dont’t overthink it, allow yourself to make space for your inner world and remember everything is welcomed.

A recently had the pleasure to explore this prompt with a group from .cb in an intro to art therapy workshop✨🍂🍁

Hello October,
Hello rain clouds,
Hello foggy mountain tops.

Even though school days are long behind me, September still feels like a beginning. Clients return from summer rhythms, new groups and offerings take root, and my head fills with fresh ideas. This year, September slipped by even faster as I spent its first days away from the studio.

Now, with the rain rolling in and the ocean air shifting, I’m reminded to pause, breathe, and carve time between all of what’s ahead. Even when life gets busy, there’s no need to rush.

What are your favourite ways to pause and allow space for yourself?

In the summertime, when the weather is hot… ☀️🎶You can find me at the beach, in the garden, or… behind my desk! 🫜🌿

Summer, for me, is a time to rest, recharge, and integrate.

But it’s also a quiet season of tending to the roots of my practice—laying the groundwork for what’s to come. ✨

Behind the scenes, I’ve been giving my website a much-needed glow-up. Most of the updates are live—current info, pricing, and upcoming workshops are now easy to find. The final step? Creating a brand-new portfolio and online shop. Stay tuned!
