Beginning a therapy journey can feel overwhelming, but ultimately the goal is to help you feel better and acquire more adaptive coping skills to lead a more fulfilling life. This process is unique to each individual. If you are struggling with anxiety, depression, or are a parent looking for extra support for your child, your needs and issues will be discussed with empathy and care. Together, we will build attainable goals to help you express yourself in empowering, healing and transformative ways.
Art therapy enriches the lives of individuals, families and children. I provide trauma-informed integrative art therapy sessions that assist in building healthy communication styles, emotional awareness and insight through active art making. I utilize applied psychological theory, human experience and a person-centered approach to each art therapy session.
Art therapy can improve cognition, reduce stress and build self-esteem. Sometimes verbal expression does not feel sufficient when you are going through a difficult time. If you are ready to express yourself through art making, reach out for a free consultation today!
