Art Therapy can be used as a primary form of treatment, or as a supplement to talk therapy.
Formerly Alexandra Corriveau. Starting therapy with someone new can be an intimidating process. I believe that building a therapeutic relationship starts with getting to know each client and creating an engaging space. I have an eclectic approach to therapy and utilize solution focused techniques. I have experience working with all ages, and I currently see both adults and teenagers. I am close to UCONN and Eastern and love to work with college students. In addition to providing therapy services, I also offer clinical supervision and art therapy supervision for individuals working towards their ATR or LPC credentials.

In my practice I use wholistic approaches including talk therapy, CBT, DBT, Mindfulness, Trauma therapy, ART (EMDR), and Somatic Experiencing.
On our path in life we all go through times of struggle. Sometimes from unresolved past issues or just problems in the present. I believe we can learn to know ourselves and move through difficulties when we have support from a trusted individual with whom we can process. I work in collaboration with clients to build on natural strengths, while addressing barriers to progress, so they can move toward their goals. I work from a wholistic perspective (mind/body) and create an emotionally supportive, non-judgmental space where clients can feel safe to share their stories and create insight for action and growth.

My areas of focus include working with individuals, couples and families, trauma, relational, and substance dependency challenges. I also provided supervision hours for emerging art therapists.

Hi, I am Dr Julia, director of Creative Therapies. Over thirty years I have developed and fine-tuned a unique, whole-child approach to child therapy. After your consultation, initial parent intake and goal setting, your child will enter therapy. Whether your child plays, draws, or talks, the challenges will present for healing, usually in the very first session, and often different from what the parents identified. Your child will play, resolve and master challenges. While unlike traditional child therapy you participate in weekly phone discussions, receive assignments, techniques and answers to your questions and concerns.

You just feel...stuck. You deal with a persistent sadness like you're moving through life in a heavy fog. Or maybe you're constantly on edge, overwhelmed by worry and that unrelenting inner critic. Maybe you just feel so disconnected that you're having trouble identifying the problem. On the outside, everything looks perfect and you 'should ' be happy. The truth is, you've gotten so good at faking it that you feel like an impostor in your own life. You're just not your best self.

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.
