Final Goodbyes

Here's yet another idea I found on Pinterest.  I saw the image and was super excited to share it with you all.  I image it being a perfect discharge or graduation activity, something that can symbolize the progress the patient has made throughout treatment.

.

Materials:
Construction paper
Magazines
Colored pencils, markers, crayons
Other art supplies

Description:
Have the patient make a piece of artwork to symbolize her growth and the lessons she's learned in treatment.  Encourage her to make it meaningful and significant, personal to her journey through treatment.  This can be done ahead of time if desired.  During the group, have the person share her piece of artwork with the others. Lead a group about the benefits of treatment and the importance of recognizing the progress each patient makes.
