It is my mission to provide exceptional psychotherapy services in a non-traditional way. Sometimes it can be difficult to put into words what is bothering us, or find the root cause of our symptoms. Art psychotherapy is an innovative, therapeutic intervention that combines traditional talk therapy with the creation and exploration of art media that is facilitated by an art therapist.
