Story time! Back in winter 2015 I was having a hard time and I was seeing a therapist. The cold, wet, snowy weather we were having at the time meant I was spending a lot of time in my apartment by myself and it was impacting my mental health. My therapist suggested I find a creative hobby that I could do from home. I landed on crochet myself, but I still credit her with being the reason Cactus and Co got started!
Mental health professionals are exploring the benefits of creative hobbies – and referring their patients accordingly
