Art Therapy for quirky, brainy, crafty, sensitive CHILDREN and ADULTS who need hands-on something creative to work through tough emotional stuff.

Once upon a time you imagined you were the HERO IN YOUR STORY, you believed you deserved all the riches in the kingdom, and you were worthy of unbounding love.

Are you tired of STRUGGLING?

Are you so over behaviors that no longer work?

Stuck in a spiral of negative patterns and anxious thoughts?

Overwhelmed with anxiety, fear, loss or worry?

Tired of feeling disconnected from your life and those you love?

Art Therapy Can Help!

Tap into your creativity and transform your life.

We all lose our way from time to time. Whether it’s your child that seems to no longer be their kind-hearted, resilient, happy self or it’s your own sparkle that’s gotten dim from too much worry, fear, or sadness. Isn’t it time to let go of old behaviors and beliefs so you can create more peace and happiness in your life?

What is ART THERAPY?

Art Therapy is a specialized therapeutic profession that utilizes art making and the creative process to enhance self-awareness, cultivate self-esteem, discharge and process emotions and trauma, and encourage emotional resilience. Art Therapy integrates the processing of new experiences, allows for a shift of perspective, and provides a bodily release — engaging the mind, body, and spirit!

Unlike traditional talk therapy, Art Therapy can uncover deeper-rooted issues that are hard to communicate and provides a kinesthetic, hands-on, way to work through difficult emotions. 

Let’s get to work.

  • For Kids

    Help your child creatively manage their behaviors and positively express their feelings, so they feel confident and happier

  • For Adults

    Release anxiety, loss and trauma. Tell your inner critic to take a chill and reclaim your creative knowing you are good enough
