Art Therapy in Westminster, CO
You are not broken. Even the parts of you that feel messy, confusing, painful, or too much have roots in something deeply human... your longing to belong, to be understood, to stay safe in the world you grew up in. So many of the ways you learned to cope, connect, or protect yourself were shaped by the family systems and environments you moved through. They are adaptations, not flaws. Together, we look beneath the surface, into the deeper layers of yourself, where your beliefs, hopes, fears, and longings live. You don’t have to move through it alone. I’m here with you.

I work with individuals who are navigating anxiety, depression, childhood trauma, and experiencing relational discord . My practice is rooted in the belief that our earliest attachment patterns profoundly shape how we show up in our adult relationships and behaviors currently.

I recognize that this work can be challenging, which is why I prioritize a warm, deeply supportive environment where your success and well-being are my primary focus. Together, we will transform insight into lasting healing.

I am a humanistic art therapist offering individual support for children, adolescents, and adults.
While the majority of my experience is with children and adolescents who have experienced trauma, I'm looking forward to supporting individuals across the life span. Additionally, I have experience with anxiety, depression, neurodivergence, grief, transitions, and behavior issues. No artistic experience or talent is necessary to benefit from art therapy. : )

You woke up again only to realize your person is gone. Just like that. They are no longer here. Is it even possible to go on without them? The ache in your chest is too much to bear. The tears either won’t stop flowing or they don’t even come. It feels like you’re stuck in a rip current. You see the shore, find some relief, and then the wave slaps you in the face and again you are being dragged under. It’s unfair. It’s gut-wrenching. It just SUCKS! Life doesn’t have the same excitement it once did, and you wonder if it ever will again.

New beginnings come with more emotions than we know. Some come with worry, some with excitement, but more often than not, new beginnings come with fear. Fear of the unknown. I understand that fear and it is why I prioritize understanding my clients' emotions when they take the leap to begin therapy. Whether it is with a new therapist in a new city or for the first time ever, emotions are exposed and support is needed. I believe that healing is a risky journey, but a journey where support is waiting. I strive to provide each client with the individualized support they need in order to heal and discover their next new beginning.

Art Therapy Therapists
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.
