Seneca Hendrickson

Hello, my name is Seneca Hendrickson and I am a licensed Creative Arts Therapist (LCAT) in New York. I received my Masters Degree at Nazareth College and have 6 years experience in the field. I have worked mostly in an outpatient setting with a wide range of individuals, groups, and communities. I have found a great connection working with young adults, new mothers, or mothers of small children, those with chronic illness, and those simply working toward improving their quality of life.

My approach is strength based, person centered, and holistically grounded. As an Art Therapist clients have the option to engage in art therapy. No art experience is required. The process, creative artwork, and discussion create space to integrate fractured pieces of the mind, body, and soul. I want to help you get in touch with your creativity to cultivate more self-compassion, build resilience, mindfulness, increase self-esteem, reduce stress, and help you express yourself.

I try to create a safe environment and focus on building rapport with each of my clients. I believe in a trust-based relationship. I want to hear your story! I believe it is important to go at the pace of the client. I never want anyone to feel uncomfortable when sharing the deepest parts of themselves. Many of my clients tell me after each session they feel they have talked with a friend but realize there has been growth in their conversation, and to me that is how therapy should be!
