Did you know that Doane House Hospice works in York Regional Schools?
Unfortunately these days, children and teens are often thrown into the role of caregivers as we see life-threatening illnesses impact younger families. Also, children and teens are facing bereavement more frequently, whether through family illness, teen suicide, accidents, or other traumatic events.
Being able to use Art Therapy when working with children and teens, allows the student to safely relay their deepest fears, anxieties, and grief through their art, which opens the door to conversations and therapeutic growth.
The Hospice’s Bereavement Coordinator / Art Therapist offers either one-to-one sessions or group work for students experiencing anticipatory grief or bereavement. Students may be referred from the Guidance Department at the school or families may contact Doane House Hospice directly.
