Study type
Interventional
Description of intervention(s) / exposure
-CB-Art intervention was offered over two, one-hour face to face group sessions held on day 2 and day 5 of a 5-day inpatient stay, for 3 participants at a time. The intervention was implemented with three independent groups at Masada Private Hospital Early Parenting Centre.
-Post enrollment in the study, attendance was checked off on a list for session 1 and session 2.
-Sessions were facilitated by a clinical psychologist and an assistant.
-Participants were provided with new art materials (A3 sheets of white paper, oil pastels, coloured pencils, grey lead pencils, charcoal and erasers) which were placed at the centre of a large oval table.
-During session one participants were instructed to draw an image associated with a personal source stress. They were given 10 uninterrupted minutes to work on the image
-Each participant was invited to talk about what had been drawn, and what they thought it meant to them, and then to respond to questions or comments from other group members.
-In session two participants were instructed to draw an image associated with a personal source of strength. They were given 10 minutes to complete the drawing. In the second session, participants were invited to respond to differences they observed between their own or others’ first and second drawings. Cognitive behavioural techniques were employed to assist participants to reframe thoughts and perceptions and to facilitate solution-focussed problem solving.
