Most of my child and teen clients look forward to therapy. I am highly successful in building a safe space and encouraging rewarding therapeutic experiences and positive change for children and teens. Does your child act unruly or have trouble managing small disappointments or changes without crying like the world has ended? Does your child or teen struggle with social skills, making poor choices, having low grades, or have low confidence? Have things turned to being unsafe in the home or school? Have you and your partner argued about how to handle your child? Turn that frown upside down!

Hi Im Christina, I truly believe in building a trusting relationship that leads to the empowerment and growth of the client. As a mother of three and a lover of nature, i get that life is not always what we want or expect it to be, there are times when one's path is unclear and finding one's way becomes quite difficult. If you keep on doing what you've always done, you will keep on getting what you have always gotten. If you are not living your best life it is time to make a commitment to yourself and dedicate the time and energy to increase the quality of your life.

With my counseling foundations, Art Therapy & personality trainings, I utilize a depth-focused, and analytical person centered approach in working with anxiety, autism (level 1), life transitions, separation/divorce, childhood trauma, emotional wounds, boundary setting & more.
Are you seeking deeper connection with others & understanding of self? Are you feeling lost, lacking purpose or satisfaction in life? My depth oriented, visually expressive & meditative approaches allow for an exploration of personality, habits, patterns, connections and the ego that have structured your life but are disrupting your joy & fulfillment. When we feel fear, anxiety, desire, shame, perfection or an egotistical sense of value, we defer to what we know, judgement, impulsivity, sarcasm, disconnection, envy, revenge and more. These are defenses we've built resist vulnerability, self-awareness, compassion & safe connection.

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.
