Description
Art Therapy is an effective alternative to traditional talk therapy. It is a great fit for teenagers, creatives, young adults, and anyone wanting to examine their emotions, behaviours and life in a new way. Individuals come to me because previous ways of coping are not working for them and they want to face their challenges in a healthy way. Some individuals have been in traditional talk therapy for years without seeing much progress. Often they are feeling stuck or unable to move through the challenges they are experiencing.
I believe that breaking free from old habits and self-destructing behaviour is possible, and that understanding the underlying motivation for current behaviour and healing old wounds is a necessary and important part of the process. Expressing oneself in art also allows us to tap into our non-verbal, subconscious side, which ultimately leads to greater amounts of internal peace and personal expansion
I come from a client-centered, mindfulness-based perspective with the understanding that everyone is the expert of their own lives. Using art therapy allows for an integrative approach which gets tailored specifically to your goals, needs, and innate disposition towards life and learning. I provide a safe and inspiring environment, as well as the tools and compassion required to embark together on this journey of self-discovery.
I understand the language of emotions and can work with you to create healthy alternatives for authentic self-expression and wellbeing. My use of art therapy draws upon my own experience working through disconnection from myself and a need to find ways to manage my emotions. I have worked with refugees in displaced camps and high functioning executives; but the most challenging battle has been managing my own fears, anxieties, and insecurities.
