Village Center for the Arts

Village Center for the Arts in New Milford, CT is proud to introduce two new ongoing Art Therapy Group series led by Jessica LaBarca, MA, ATR-BC, LPC, a board-certified art psychotherapist and licensed professional counselor with over 15 years of clinical experience.
Beginning evenings in April, these two monthly groups will provide structured, professionally guided support for adults (18+) navigating:
Chronic illness, autoimmune conditions, or physical disability &nbsp; Grief and loss following the death of a loved one
Each group meets separately and is designed to offer a safe, creative space for emotional exploration and community connection.
The Chronic Illness Art Therapy Group begins Wednesday, April 22 and will meet on the third Wednesday of each month from 6:30–7:30 PM.
The Grief and Loss Art Therapy Group begins Wednesday, April 29 and will meet on the fourth Wednesday of each month from 6:30–7:30 PM.
No prior art experience is required. Participants will be guided through art-making processes using drawing, painting, collage, journaling, or mixed media as tools for reflection and emotional discovery. The focus is not on artistic skill, but on expression and shared experience. Art can provide a powerful way to explore emotions, build coping tools, and strengthen social support.
Sessions are $50 per meeting. Receipts for insurance reimbursement available upon request. Interested participants are asked to email arttherapywithjess@gmail.com to schedule a consultation prior to joining.
All sessions are held in person at Village Center for the Arts. The facility includes accessible parking, and handicap accessibility via a chair lift. VCA is located at 12 Main Street, New Milford, CT. (860) 354-4318.
