So today I turned my grp space into an obstacle course but each kid had a different limitation (i.e., blind, blind & deaf, blind deaf & handless, legless, a zombie). Orange cones were land mines and the grey yarn was barbed wire. Point #1: We often pretend that we don't see what we're doing/ what the consequences of our actions are. Nd we often turn away/ignore sound advice, or even the truth. Point #2: Everyone has some form of limitation but you have to first own your limitations to reach out for/receive support. You have to own that you play like you don't see/hear and own that you're rigid in your thinking and own that you sometimes feel like your legs are cut from under you or like you don't have the support/can't catch yourself when you're falling. #Ownership #OutOfTheBoxConversations #TalkToTheKids #TalkToYourself #DifferentWaysToConverse #RandomButPurposeful #ExpressiveArtsTherapist #ObjectLessons #EverythingTeaches #GroupClinician #AdolescentTherapist
