In the office of the Foundation, another class on the “Rehabilitation” program was held under the leadership of Olena Sushinska. It is well known that art therapy classes play a big role in the path of full recovery for cancer patients. Team work is especially important. Working together with others on the topic of the lesson, a person feels supported by the environment. For joint activities, it is important to understand how a person sees and accepts himself in society or in a specific team.
Olena Sushinska explains the importance of conducting such a class as follows: “Regardless of the topic, every class in art therapy is aimed at reconstructing psychotraumatic situations and returning to the integrity of the person. The wards of the foundation were invited to work on creating a picture together. A collective drawing allows everyone to express themselves in the company of other people and see their strengths and weaknesses, learn to accept them, and stabilize their self-esteem.”
And, of course, during the class you can share your problems or joyful moments in life with colleagues in joint work! And get feedback – a common cause always brings people together!
