Arisa Chan

As a child of immigrants, I have had my fair share of feeling stuck, confused, or vulnerable especially in environments that didn’t quite reflect my experiences. In my clinical experience as a board-certified art therapist and counselor, I have supported children, adolescents, and adults dealing with anxiety, depression, life transitions, and identity work. I have also had several years of experience working with individuals dealing with trauma, domestic violence, and sexual assault.

I use art as a way to engage with clients as they navigate their own stories with creativity, connection, and curiosity.

I focus on creating safer, trauma-informed spaces for individuals to explore themselves more authentically and to bring awareness of how they can be more empowered in their relationships and larger communities.
