Louise Trevitt, creative mama presenting ‘Creativity and the Art of Healing’
Some of you may or may not be aware that in addition to running this fabulous Mama Creatives community, I am also a registered clinical art therapist. I currently work with children from domestic violence backgrounds, and teach art to year 10 students who have become disengaged from the traditional school system. These children all have many challenges to overcome triggered by early or on-going trauma. This can then present in different forms of anxiety, fragile self esteem, low confidence, learning difficulties, anger and behavioural problems. I am extremely proud of my work with all of these children and adolescents where I have introduced various art processes to help them express their feelings and manage their emotions. They have been able to create work that is meaningful to them, and use the power of this creative therapeutic process to form insight, which in turn can improve their situation.
At the end of this term, in two weeks, my contract at both these organisations will come to an end. Whilst I love working with children and seeing their amazing progress I also find the timing serendipitous as I am planning some incredible opportunities for our Mama Creatives community.
We have been working very hard behind the scenes to create our incredible Red Hot Mama online membership, where you will have access to all our amazing content and videos plus many other benefits to support you in your life as creative mamas. Here’s a little taste from our first Christmas Bash with Lisa Messenger, founder of Collective Hub.
We are still finalising the technical aspects of our incredible offer but we wanted to give you the first opportunity to save your spot in joining our online community as foundation members. Please contact us here if you would like more details.
Red Hot Mama Online Membership Launch: We will have our first official launch at our next Creative Mama Evening Talk, ‘Creativity and the the Art of Healing’ featuring multi talented Louise Trevitt, who will be sharing her story of surviving breast cancer and how her creative process helped her heal. Louise’s intention when she creates is to entwine mindfulness, art and wellness together in a holistic approach through her creative expression. This will be an incredibly inspiring talk, so definitely recommend booking this into your calendars!
