Pelican Arts is located in Mildura, Victoria, and run by Professionally Registered Art Therapist and Accredited Mental Health Social Worker Kate Cotching. We provide one to one art therapy and Mental Health Social work for individuals, adults and children over seven years of age.
Kate has a passion for the arts and aims to enhance the health and well-being of individuals and the community through creative activities. We use evidence based practices to provide therapy in a supportive, non-judgemental and confidential environment where people can use art to express themselves freely, develop greater self-awareness and connect with others. We value creativity in all its forms and believe all people should feel empowered when making art regardless of their background, age or abilities. Creativity in all its forms in encouraged and valued.
Our one to one sessions can be tailored to suit a diverse range of participants and vary depending on personal and therapeutic goals. Group therapy can be provided by partnering with local organisations, businesses and schools or in our Mildura Studio.
Pelican Arts acknowledges the First People of the Millewa-Mallee as the traditional owners of the land on which we work. The Latji Latji, Nyeri Nyeri, Ngintait and Wergaia as well as their neighbours the Barkindji, Maraura, Mutti Mutti, Tatti Tatti and Wotjabaluk. We pay our respects to the elders past, present and emerging.
