Mission Statement

A Creative Pause nurtures emotional wellness and resilience in communities around the world.

About This Cause

A Creative Pause is dedicated to making mental health a human birthright. We build emotional resilience in communities worldwide by creating and holding safe spaces for reflection and authentic sharing. The core of our belief is that every human being can be their best selves when they are provided the conditions to be emotionally authentic without judgment. We combine positive psychology, healing traditions, neuroscience advances, narrative therapy approaches, self-compassion research and skill building, poly vagal theory, non-violent communications, problem-solving skills, relationship enhancement, and a variety of other proven strategies on a foundation of the expressive arts to deliver healing and resilience building solutions. Our programs are available free of charge to anyone interested in emotional wellness and mental health for underserved populations. Social Emotional Learning program: Our SEL program delivers the five competencies of social emotional learning skills via an experiential- and discussion-based format using well-researched approaches. Emotional wellness Program: Through our partnership with the International Expressive Arts and Therapy Association (www.ieata.org), we provide training and support for nonprofits worldwide to deliver emotional wellness to the populations they serve. Care for caregivers program: The nonprofit sector deals with rapid and frequent burnout. Our program provides an opportunity for staff and volunteers of nonprofits to take time for them selves, to heal, to recharge, and to recommit to their passion to help others.
