The Art Therapy program at VBIS is a wonderful opportunity to explore your creativity while making social connections in a relaxed environment. We work on a take-home project every session using a variety of mediums to promote cognitive rehabilitation, while sharing stories and having fun.

In Mindfulness class you will practice different exercises that promote mindfulness such as journaling, meditation, goal-setting, and the benefits of nature. However, you will also learn why these exercises are beneficial and how to develop skills that will help you to continue to implement mindfulness into your everyday life. Mindfulness can be empowering to individuals as you claim back power over yourself and how you interpret your surroundings, something that, as expressed by participants, can feel difficult to do after a TBI.
