Art Therapy in Carmel, IN
At times people find themselves wondering how they got where they are, thinking about now vs then. Experiences can lead to not feeling like yourself and being uncertain of where you're headed. Entering new phases of life can present uncharted struggles, overwhelming unease, and major disruptions to balance and peace, making the path forward feel confusing and unsure. Maybe the overwhelm has gotten the better of you and you are hoping to find a place to land that is safe, met with warmth and honesty, and is practical in nature. If so, you've landed in the right spot.

Are you interested in integrating your love of knitting, crocheting, mending, or other relaxing hobbies/ art forms into your self-care?
I offer individual therapy session for adults and specialize in work with Queer individuals. I offer a neuro-affirming approach with specialized training in polyvagal practices and EMDR. I am especially enthusiastic about the use of calming creative hobbies and art forms in therapy.

I often use experiential therapies in my practice, such as sandtray, play, and art, which target the feelings part of the brain, leading clients to discover the root of their challenges more quickly than talk therapy alone, and experience healing.
Overwhelmed by grief, anxiety, or trauma, and want to learn how to walk through everyday life without the feeling of being weighed down? Whether you/the client is a child struggling to express big emotions; a teen navigating identity or friendships; an adult seeking peace and clarity; or an elder experiencing the loss of a spouse, I can help! I believe the client is the expert on his/her life, so I utilize client centered therapy where the client is able to take an active and directive role in his/her healing. The client can talk freely and feel heard, validated, and valued.

I truly believe in building a trusted relationship between the therapist and client through the therapeutic process. I use a collaborative approach to therapy and believe that if a client can find greater understanding within themselves, they can achieve greater satisfaction in their lives and create a lasting change to move forward.
