While completing my Master's in Expressive Arts Therapy, I am offering in-person group sessions for adults and children as well as individual sessions.
Welcome to SENTIR - SENTIR means "to feel/sense" in Spanish. Have you been wondering when to find the time to take care of yourself and you still cannot find it? OR You might find the time but are unsure of what to do because everything seems too overwhelming and you are physically, mentally and/or emotionally exhausted? I've been there too! Let’s come together and reflect on the importance of our self-care to build healthier boundaries while using visual arts, music, movement, play, drama, and writing!

My training includes psychodynamic, cognitive-behavioural, solution-focused, trauma-informed, expressive arts, dialectical behavioural therapies, systemic models, EMDR and brain-spotting.
Many things in our lives are on a continuum, including the intensity of the problem, resilience, resourcefulness, and healing. Sometimes we need more guidance and help than other times, and sometimes we feel that we can manage on our own. The striving to heal or cope at our best may be subtle or more apparent in our lives, which helps to realize that change is needed, contemplate it, and act. My approach to psychotherapy is integrative, eclectic, and trauma-informed.

Hi. I’m Christine. I’m a certified counsellor. I’m also an educator, mother, doula and an inner and outer explorer. Prior to becoming a therapist, I worked in the human service sector in roles such as school teacher, community justice facilitator, sexual health educator, and crisis counsellor. I have been fortunate to work with people from across the lifespan from diverse cultural, racial, sexual, religious, and economic backgrounds. It is through this work and through self-inquiry that I have come to understand how these complex intersections of identity shape one’s experience and well-being.

Being a mom has its moments, but honestly, sometimes it's tough. It can feel lonely, overwhelming, and just plain hard. When things start to really suck, it's important to address it. Together, we can figure out what's not working, how to fix it, and how to build on what's already working. It's not your fault, and I believe in you. I mostly work with women who are struggling with feeling like they should be enjoying motherhood more, but they're not. Whether it's the emotional labour or mental load, the pressure to be a "good" mom, mental health, family drama, or just trying to find yourself again, I can help!

Expressive Arts Counsellors

What happens in expressive arts therapy?

In an expressive arts therapy session, the therapist will provide the space and materials necessary to encourage the client to express themselves creatively. These can include art supplies, musical instruments, a journal, a camera, and more. The therapist offers careful guidance throughout the creative process, often noticing and talking about psychological issues as they arise. Many clients also benefit from the mind-body connection—the physical act of making art can help them feel more grounded and present.

How long does expressive arts therapy take?

An expressive arts therapy session will typically last between 50 minutes and an hour. Group sessions may run longer. Sometimes, a client might only need one or two sessions of expressive arts therapy in conjunction with talk therapy to resolve a psychological issue. Others might find a fixed number of sessions over the course of either weeks or months to be beneficial. The duration depends on the client and their individual needs and goals for therapy.

How does expressive arts therapy help children?

Creativity is an important part of normal child development. Expressive arts therapy proves a safe outlet for child clients to learn to identify their emotions and express them in healthy ways. In expressive arts therapy, children can build their self-esteem, discover more about their personality and strengths, and feel a sense of normalcy in an otherwise chaotic world. This therapeutic approach can be particularly helpful for children with developmental disabilities, autism, ADHD, speech impairments, and other conditions.

What are the limitations of expressive arts therapy?

Sometimes individuals have physical limitations that can affect their ability to express themselves artistically in certain mediums. For example, someone with hearing problems might find it difficult to make music. Sickness and mobility issues can make some types of art physically inaccessible (e.g., sculpting, dancing, etc.). Sometimes, clients are overly skeptical and have trouble letting go and engaging with the creative process. Individuals who require a higher level of care may be better served with other types of therapy.
