A different approach to depression treatment.

Art Therapy is a type of psychotherapy involving creative self expression through various art making materials. Art Therapy acts as a bridge between the conscious and unconscious mind, revealing underlying emotions and conflicts that contribute to depression.

Engaging in the creative process, with a trained Art Therapist, can help individuals increase confidence, connection and joy.

Through guided art making, and talk therapy, individuals can gain insight into their depression, work towards resolving underlying stressors.

I’ll help you address the root of depression, creatively.

We’ll address thought patterns, body sensations, and behaviors and held experiences that inhibit joy through art therapy and complimentary modalities.

You don’t need to “make art” in every session. However, I’ll offer the option of therapeutic art making as another tool to help you.
