Darian Fiorenza

I am a licensed counselor, board-certified art therapist, and trauma-informed yoga practitioner who blends evidence-based treatments into a creative and personalized approach. I specialize as a HAES (Health At Every Size) clinician who utilizes mind-body approaches such as art therapy, somatic therapy, and yoga in conjunction with talk therapy to treat bio-psycho-social disorders such as eating disorders and disordered eating.

I primarily serve adults, young adults, and adolescents. I have extensive experience in working with anxiety, depression, disordered eating and eating disorders, trauma, OCD, and mood disorders.

I utilize an eclectic humanistic person-centered approach with CBT, DBT, ACT, IFS parts work, motivational interviewing, exposure response prevention (ERP), mindfulness, yoga/holistic practices, and art psychotherapy, depending on the individual and their needs. My clients are looking to make lasting and impactful changes in their lives to gain insight into their mental health and improve their own well-being. I believe humor and creativity are integral to building a therapeutic relationship.

I use a person-centered approach. I specialize in art therapy where individuals may work through their issues by gaining insight and expressing themselves through metaphor. Clients will gain greater insight into the mind-body connection and how they can utilize their strengths to minimize feelings of shame and increase overall life satisfaction. I can assist in improving one's relationship with food, movement, perfectionist tendencies, and themselves.

My clients work towards gaining insight into their mental health and its mind-body connection by identifying triggers, warning signs, and impacts of distress. My clients build coping and calming skills to manage symptoms, improving executive functioning, boundaries, and relationships with others and themselves. My goal is for my clients to take what they learn and eventually no longer require my assistance long-term.
