Emotions, communication, conflict resolution, grief, identity, "coping," or whatever that means... it all can be a lot. Especially when it's not just one of those things, but rather feels like you're drowning in a sea of all of them, more more. These are just a sample of a few things that I love the chance to work through with teens, couples, and individuals.

Everything is connected: symptoms such as anxiety and depression are often related to relationship and resource issues, which connect to things like identity, neurotype, or environment. I work with teens and adults struggling with multiple concerns within themselves, their relationships, and their communities.

Hello! I am a registered art therapist and licensed clinical mental health counselor with a creative and person-centered approach. You do not have to be an artist to benefit from art therapy. In fact, some of the most profound shifts I have witnessed have occurred with people who do not identify as artistic in any way. You are simply asked to bring a sense of openness and curiosity to our collaboration, where you will be invited to be active in setting the pace and goals of our work together. My philosophy is that art and creativity facilitate insight, growth, and healing.

Art Therapy

How does art therapy work?

The process of making art allows people to express themselves. Art-making can take many forms, such as painting, collage, or sculpting. The therapist asks questions that the work elicits, such as how the person felt while creating their piece, or if any memories surfaced that they can discuss. The therapist will then work with the patient to process their experience, understand themselves better, and work toward change.

Does art therapy help with trauma?

Art therapy can be a valuable treatment option for those suffering from trauma. Traumatic experiences such as combat, rape, or childhood abuse can be so painful that articulating them can be too scary or painful; creating art allows people to express themselves without words, and tell their story in a different way. The physical nature of creating art can also help people feel rooted in the body, which may benefit those who feel disconnected from their body in the aftermath of trauma.

How long does art therapy last?

The duration of art therapy varies, but a common length for treatment is 10 to 15 weekly sessions. Some people may see improvement in just a few weeks, while others may choose to remain in therapy longer term. Patients should periodically discuss their goals with their therapist to make sure the two are aligned on process and progress.

What are the limitations of art therapy?

Art therapy is helpful for many people, but a limitation is that it doesn’t have as robust an evidence base as other forms of therapy, such as cognitive behavioral therapy or acceptance and commitment therapy. The evidence on art therapy is mixed; some research demonstrates its benefits, while other research suggests that it has little impact on patients.
