Individual Art Therapy:
I have been practicing art therapy since 2014 with a diverse population. I truly believe that the arts is a powerful tool in helping people heal and feel better. The process of art-making is very beneficial and there is a sense of magic that happens in the space. I enjoy witnessing how art therapy brings about stories, unspoken feelings, thoughts, reflections, and identity explorations for people.
You do not have to be an “artist” or good at art to do art therapy!
As an art therapist, I serve as a guide in a person’s healing journey by listening, teaching new coping skills, and providing support and accountability of a person’s goal and healing process. I believe we are all artists and should access this part of ourselves with curiosity and joy!
I incorporate mindfulness, CBT, trauma-informed care, TF-CBT, brainspotting ,and person-centered in art therapy. No experience in art is necessary. I also specialize in the following topics: Acculturaion, life transitions, depression, anxiety, Loss & Grief, burn out, trauma, and PTSD.
