Neurolotus Art Therapy

In October 2021, Neurolotus Art Therapy started as an online art therapy service provided by Lily to facilitate access to Montreal's community, especially for neurodiverse and racialized minorities during the pandemic's restrictions. 

In March 2022, the practice transitioned to in-person art therapy sessions in a cozy art therapy studio with wonderful views of  Tio'tia:ke (Montreal) cityscape. Recently, in 2024 Neurolotus art therapy studio relocated to a wonderful space upstairs from Papeterie Nota Bene. 

Lily offers both online and in/person sessions. To protect confidentiality and personal data, Lily uses a virtual clinic platform called JaneApp, which complies with numerous countries' cyber security standards (Data is encrypted using 256-bit encryption).
