 Individual Art Therapy for Adolescents and Adults

​

When you work with me, you can expect my complete presence. My orientation is person-centered and collaborative. It is my hope that you feel fully supported and respected while in session. I value providing a laid-back, casual atmosphere, where my clients feel comfortable and relaxed in the space. 

​

I practice with a trauma-informed orientation, paying special focus to the experiences of our mind-body connection to help guide you out of the cognitive experiences and into a more holistic form of healing. I utilize trauma informed art therapy experiences and EMDR.

 What is Art Therapy?

​

"Art therapy is a mental health profession in which clients, facilitated by the art therapist, use art media, the creative process, and the resulting artwork to explore their feelings, reconcile emotional conflicts, foster self-awareness, manage behavior and addictions, develop social skills, improve reality orientation, reduce anxiety, and increase self-esteem."
