Art Therapy

Create & explore

Art therapy can be as easy as drawing circles, while being as rich in meaning as you are open to exploring. No prior art-making experience required! Just come with a willingness to create within the non-judgmental context of a trained art therapist (me!).

Art materials can include watercolors, collage materials, clay, oil pastels, markers, colored pencils, and many more possibilities. 

Sometimes, people have had unpleasant experiences to making art, like a strict teacher or a belittling parent. I understand this can make art-making an overwhelming or anxiety-filled experience. At the same time, if the smell of crayons gets you nostalgic, coloring in an outline feels so satisfying, or you simply marvel at a pretty assortment of colors, we can get curious about what you want art-making to mean for you.

As an art therapist, I have witnessed that art therapy can help a person discover possibilities which once seemed like it had only one rigid path. Rather than sticking to language rules, many ideas can be expressed all at once in art-making.

Art therapy isn't just about creating art during our time together, it's a tool to help deepen your understanding of yourself and what has driven you to find a therapist right now.
