I have been working as an art therapist and psychotherapist for over 20 years. I have experience working with all ages of people (in both inpatient and outpatient settings) during times of crises and adjustment. My focus is to help clients develop self-awareness to improve their relationship to self and others.
In art therapy sessions, I encourage artmaking (drawing/collage/painting/sculpture), and reflection in the sessions on the experience of the process and product. In verbal psychotherapy sessions I encourage the client to address any personal material that is necessary to explore patterns and self-understanding. With increased self awareness, comes a clearer path to discover what one needs to change in order to find more contentment in life.
Openness, connection, and getting feedback on steps towards understanding the Self.
