A common misconception of Art Therapy is that it requires artistic skill however this is not true! I offer Art Therapy, traditional talk therapy, or a blend of the two tailored to fit your needs. My clients often share a willingness to explore, create, and challenge comfort zones while I assist with art making and guiding therapeutic discussion. Some examples of goals that can be addressed in art therapy are increased communication skills and self-esteem; decreased anxiety, depression, anger, and stress; and processing of relationships and events.

We can develop a foundation for improving insight, discovering your inner strengths, learning to live life in accordance to your core values, and learning how to let that guide thinking and behaviors.

Hi, my name is Jennie and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor. My therapy style is based on us all being human and needing support and guidance throughout our lives. I decided to go into the counseling field because I believe that every person deserves to have care in their life. I have experience working with children, adolescents, adults and older adults.

Unfortunately many people have had negative experiences with counseling, making them hesitant to seek help again. I am especially skilled at working with those who are uncomfortable with the idea of therapy. A client once told me "You should be a therapist for people who do not like therapy". I try to understand people on an individual level & adapt my skills to meet their needs. My goal is to provide a safe, comfortable, & nonjudgmental atmosphere. Therapy should not be simply "learning coping skills", to deal with negative feelings, it should involve working through the root of the problem to facilitate long-lasting change.

I believe that we as individuals are the true experts about our own lives, and that positive change is not only possible but is within reach, when we are provided with the support we need. As a therapist, my goal is to provide this support through offering a non-judgmental space for clients that will allow them to identify, reflect on, and challenge undesired thoughts and behaviors. I believe that therapy should be a collaboration aimed to help my clients arrive at practical solutions in order to create more positive outcomes and begin to move forward in a healthier way.

NOW OFFERING ART THERAPY. Many people have had negative experiences with counseling, making them hesitant to seek help again. We are especially skilled at working with those who are uncomfortable with the idea of therapy. Clients have described us as “Therapists for people who don’t like therapy”. We try to understand people on an individual level & adapt our skills to meet their needs. Our goal is to provide a safe, comfortable, & nonjudgmental atmosphere. Therapy should not be simply "learning coping skills", to deal with negative feelings, it should involve working to root of the problem to facilitate long-lasting change.

Many of us have been emotionally wounded by family members, friends, loved ones, co-workers, and/or strangers. Psychological suffering can take on many forms, showing up in our thoughts, feelings, behaviors, and relationships. Sometimes it can be experienced as sadness, depression, worry, anxiety, etc. This form of suffering, while painful, often points to the parts of ourselves that invite healing. And while the challenges of living with such experiences can be immense, they also present opportunities for growth. The truth is that you can find peace of mind, solace in your heart, and live joyfully, regardless of your past.
