Pages 92-99 | Published online: 07 Dec 2016
 

ABSTRACT

We represent a team of six art therapists working together with InnerArt Inc. possessing over 50 years of accumulated experience in long-term care. This article is about sharing our collective knowledge about art therapy for individuals who have experienced various forms of marginalization. This article will address anti-oppression theory and practice promoting empowerment in long-term care for young adults, for cognitively impaired older adults, for those who live with mental health challenges, addiction, and who have experienced homelessness. These issues all have common threads that will emerge in the analysis of the team's clinical practice.

RÉSUMÉ

Nous représentons une équipe de six art-thérapeutes travaillant en collaboration avec InnerArt Inc., cumulant plus de 50 ans d'expérience en soins de longue durée. Cet article vise à partager notre savoir collectif sur l'art-thérapie pour les personnes qui ont vécu diverses formes de marginalisation. Cet article traitera de la théorie anti-oppression et de la pratique promouvant l'autonomisation en soins de longue durée auprès des jeunes adultes, des personnes plus âgées souffrant de troubles cognitifs, de ceux qui vivent avec des problèmes de santé mentale, de toxicomanie, et qui ont connu l'itinérance. Ces questions ont toutes des points communs qui émergeront dans l'analyse de la pratique clinique de l′équipe.
