My ideal client is a young adult facing overwhelming life challenges. They might feel lost amid trauma, loss, or big changes, even though they seem okay to others. They struggle with emotions like sadness and stress and need a safe place to talk, heal, and learn healthy ways to cope. They want to find peace and purpose, and they seek support to understand themselves better, grow, and face life with confidence. They're ready to explore, heal, and become the best version of themselves, knowing they don't have to do it alone.

I utilize a person-centered and holistic approach with the integration of cognitive behavioral therapy, motivational interviewing, and art therapy.
I enjoy working with clients who want to be in therapy voluntarily. Even if they are guarded, not wanting to change, and struggling with the commitment of therapy, as long as they want to be there, I enjoy working with them. Their issues, needs, and goals can be from various mental health concerns, but as long as they fit into my scope of practice, I aim to be the guide they need to achieve their goals. I am there to provide them with a safe and non-judgmental space for them to truly be themselves and allow them the opportunity to develop their strengths and better understand themselves.

My ideal client would most likely be a female teenager working through peer relationships, self-esteem, and social anxiety. With this client, I believe some of her needs would be to explore core beliefs of who she is in comparison to what others may say/think of her, cognitively challenging and reframing intrusive/negative thought patterns, and slowly expose the client to social scenarios in which she can use her coping skills to effectively navigate new situations.

I would utilize art therapy in sessions for the client to develop a sense of trust.
My ideal client presents with issues such as worry, stress, and hopelessness and has problems with emotion regulation. The client appears stagnant, as their issues have become so debilitating, that they are unable to attend to their schooling or work. Their needs consist of developing healthy coping skills, challenging negative thought patterns, and gaining insight into their current problems. Despite the client’s hopelessness, they appear motivated and goal-oriented. They want to work through their struggles to have a better life for themselves and live a life aligned with their values.

A client might be feeling overwhelmed by anxiety, depression, stress, relationship struggles, or substance use. They want to feel understood, cope better, and build confidence to handle life’s ups and downs. Some are navigating chronic health challenges or feeling stuck and unheard. They’re looking for a safe space where they don’t have to hide parts of themselves — a place where they can be real, feel supported, and start finding hope and practical ways to move forward. They are willing to put in the work even in the difficult moments.

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.
