Our Mission
Committed to wellness, we exist to alleviate psychological suffering in the most affected individuals. Harmonizing the relationship between art and psychotherapy, we practice kindness to help identify triggers, implement healthy coping skills, make positive changes, and release patterns that no longer serve.
Our Approach
Combining psychological theory and a therapeutic relationship with art facilitates pathways to the mind through the creative process. I build trust in a safe and welcoming environment incorporating art materials, a customized combination of directive and non-directive prompts, breathing exercises, and mindfulness practices tailored to the unique needs of the individual healing journey.
