Abstract
The pressures of caring for those affected by the COVID-19 pandemic and taking care of self and family have put an untold burden on healthcare professionals and educators. This has exacerbated the risk of mental health issues and burnout. It is important for mental health professionals to engage in self-care strategies in dealing with this on-going trauma. Art therapists have creativity to help them cope with difficult circumstances and technology to help connect in community. This report discusses the art salon created by three arts therapists to manage stressors during COVID-19. Through art-based reflective practice, emergent themes surfaced including creating a sacred space, rituals, connections and communication, and creative expression and transformation.
