Who
Therapeutic gaming nights are for adults 18+ who have an interest in playing tabletop style games to explore areas of mental health, identity, and other related topics – each game varies in topic. Prior gaming experience is not required!
What
Each therapeutic game night will provide an opportunity for gamers to explore a piece of their identity or personal development. These groups are led by a queer, gender diverse therapist who has several years of experience in running therapeutic games. Gamers will spend the first 2 -2.5 hours playing the game. Sensitive topics will come up in these games, so participants will spend the final 30 minutes to an hour debriefing what it was like to play and discussing questions that have come up throughout the game. Snacks will be provided.
