I’m Clark Sun, a Licensed Creative Arts Therapist (LCAT). I work with adults who are exploring identity, healing emotional pain, and learning how to feel more at home in themselves and their relationships. I’m especially attuned to clients who have spent much of their lives showing up for others, and are now learning how to show up for themselves with more clarity, compassion, and agency.
Therapy with me is intentional, collaborative, and grounded. It’s not passive and it’s not surface-level. I work to create a space where you feel supported enough to grow into who you want to become and if you’re not yet sure who that is, that’s okay. Exploration and discovery are part of the work, and we do that together.
Transparency matters to me. While no space can be guaranteed to feel completely safe all the time, I’m committed to creating a brave and supportive space, one where emotional risk-taking is honored, curiosity is encouraged, and discomfort is met with care rather than judgment. If something feels challenging or unexpected, we slow down, reflect, and work through it together.
I integrate evidence-based practices with creative and embodied approaches, including DBT, drama therapy and creative arts–based interventions, somatic awareness, attachment-informed and relational frameworks, and mindfulness and values-based practices. Together, we explore patterns and beliefs while also practicing skills that support regulation, boundaries, and self-trust, so therapy helps you feel more capable outside the session. We move at a pace that respects your readiness, honoring both your strengths and your nervous system.
The first session is a space to ease in. We’ll spend time getting to know each other, and making sure you feel supported and comfortable. We’ll talk about what’s been weighing on you the most and what brought you to therapy, while also beginning to identify your goals and what you’d like to work toward.
This session is intentionally low-pressure, there’s no expectation to have everything figured out or to dive into anything you’re not ready for. Think of it as setting the foundation for our work together: getting clear on where you are now, where you’d like to go, and how we can move forward in a way that feels right for you.
