To honour September being Suicide Prevention Month, we start this month off welcoming back Marilyn Clarke, Qualifying Registered Psychotherapist and DTATI candidate, to share her research on using art therapy to aid in the grieving process for those who have lost someone to suicide. Marilyn shares some of her own experiences as well as artist statements from her current research project on building meaning making within the suicide loss community. As mentioned in the episode, Marilyn would love for our listeners to answer the following question: How do you see art therapy within your community as a potential tool of support in your client population? If you do not have a “client population” you can consider how it might support the people around you in your own life.
