Art Therapy 


My foundations of art therapy are rooted in faith, a faith in everyone's god-head, and wise-heart.


Definiton of Art Therapy: Art-making designed to promote inner awareness and love of self and others.

You do not have to be an artist to participate in art therapy. You do not have to have any artistic skill to receive the multitude of gifts that art therapy can bestow upon you.  All you need is yourself and a willingness and openness to trust in the healing process.

Art Therapy will highlight and track your process, so that you can rediscover your authentic self.  Whether you are in the middle of a transition in life, such as starting college or a new career, or have just experienced a trauma such as a death in your family or dealing addiction issues, art therapy can help you.




This client is doing some individual art therapy work after creating a public mosaic mural with a group. His treatment was focused on healing past traumas and awakening a new sense of safety and discovery.


As a Board-Certified Art Therapist (ATR-BC) and

a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC),

I create safe spaces for clients to explore their feelings, dreams and confusions. This process is sacred and client-centered.

I work with children, adolescents, and adults. Clients who are experiencing issues such as attachment, depression, behavior, addiction, identity issues and anxiety.

Client was experiencing substance abuse.

Client was then given the directive to create an image of what their addiction feels like. This technique allows the client to take a realistic look at their situation.

Our sessions then focused on helping the client see the hope and light in their life.


Client was experiencing a major life tranisition.

Client was then given the directive to create an "inside-outside box".  This technique helps the client to express their inner hopes, conflicts and fears.

Our sessions then focused on establishing an inner space of tranquility, clarity and joy.
