Do you feel like you can’t escape harmful patterns, are spinning in anxiety, or unable to find real joy? Are you struggling to understand why you can’t create the change you want to see in your life? For many of us, the root of our most difficult feelings and harmful patterns are emotional wounds we still harbor deep inside. The process of uncovering and learning about our personal histories can help us move through the pains that are buried within us, and towards the life you want.

As an art therapist and specialist in loss, trauma and resiliency, I utilize creative expression and exploration as well as the mind-body connection from both evidenced based and experiential practices to empower clients to care for themselves in healthy ways, identify and shift self defeating patterns, and problem solve barriers to healing and growth.
Whether you are looking for support beyond talk therapy for yourself or for your child, help is close at hand. Life changes, problems from the past, and traumatic experiences can throw us and our kids off balance, getting in the way of growth. It is hard to see and feel the hurt but not know what to do. I offer safe, creative, and caring interventions for children, teens, and adults who are facing difficulties with life's challenges (stress, loss, change, trauma) and the related impact on thought patterns, emotional regulation, problematic behaviors, relationship difficulties, and the ability to communicate & cope effectively.

Art Therapy
How does art therapy work?
The process of making art allows people to express themselves. Art-making can take many forms, such as painting, collage, or sculpting. The therapist asks questions that the work elicits, such as how the person felt while creating their piece, or if any memories surfaced that they can discuss. The therapist will then work with the patient to process their experience, understand themselves better, and work toward change.
Does art therapy help with trauma?
Art therapy can be a valuable treatment option for those suffering from trauma. Traumatic experiences such as combat, rape, or childhood abuse can be so painful that articulating them can be too scary or painful; creating art allows people to express themselves without words, and tell their story in a different way. The physical nature of creating art can also help people feel rooted in the body, which may benefit those who feel disconnected from their body in the aftermath of trauma.
How long does art therapy last?
The duration of art therapy varies, but a common length for treatment is 10 to 15 weekly sessions. Some people may see improvement in just a few weeks, while others may choose to remain in therapy longer term. Patients should periodically discuss their goals with their therapist to make sure the two are aligned on process and progress.
What are the limitations of art therapy?
Art therapy is helpful for many people, but a limitation is that it doesn’t have as robust an evidence base as other forms of therapy, such as cognitive behavioral therapy or acceptance and commitment therapy. The evidence on art therapy is mixed; some research demonstrates its benefits, while other research suggests that it has little impact on patients.
