THERAPEUTIC SERVICES

 
 

INDIVIDUAL THERAPY

I am primarily an art therapist, which means that I help people find meaning and healing through art, focusing on both the process and the product of creation. The beauty of art therapy is that you don't need artistic skills to gain great benefit, and it is proven to work with people of all ages and mental health needs. I am also skilled in traditional talk therapy if that’s what you prefer. Ultimately, the therapeutic relationship is a partnership. While I have education and experience, you are the expert on who you are and what you need. I simply help you get there, listening carefully and determining what approach works best for you, rather than applying a one-technique-fits-all approach.

 

process painting classes

Process painting is essentially what it sounds like: painting that focuses on the process, rather than the product. Concentrating intently on process, with freedom from aesthetic rules, allows access to intuition and movement through uncomfortable feelings, which can lead to a deeper connection with self. This process is beneficial for the absolute novice and the experienced painter alike.

Painting with others energizes the process and creates community free from judgment. (Please note that while group can be incredibly therapeutic, it is not intended as therapy.)

AccomModations

To make sure you receive the help you need in the safest way possible, I have a variety of options.

  • Office: Between clients, I disinfect art supplies and wipe down door handles and furniture. If it will make you more comfortable, I’m happy to wear a mask.

  • Telehealth: I use a HIPAA-compliant platform for videoconference sessions. Connecting is easy and completely confidential.

  • Outside: Meeting outdoors can be highly beneficial, whether it’s simply talking in the elements or engaging in eco-art activities. We can discuss ways to ensure confidentiality as much as possible.
