Improv Therapy Group!!!

I am ridiculously excited to finally announce a new Improv Therapy Group launching in Spryfield, Nova Scotia, February 2026. This group is designed for folks who want to explore creativity, connection, and emotional resilience through the playful lens of improvisation.

🌟 What Is Improv Therapy?

Improv therapy blends the spontaneity of improvisational theatre with trauma-informed therapeutic practices. Participants engage in games, storytelling, and collaborative exercises that encourage:

• Self-expression without judgment

• Building confidence in communication and social interaction

• Stress relief through laughter and play

• Community connection in a supportive environment

  
  

🧩 Who Is It For?

This group welcomes adults of all backgrounds, especially those who:

• Are curious about creative approaches to therapy

• Want to strengthen social and emotional skills

• Are looking for an affirming space

• Are looking for a gentle, fun way to explore healing

No performance experience is required, just a willingness to play and explore.
