We need to connect with our inner world. (Sometimes, pretty desperately) We need to process what we've experienced, experientially. When we do this, we receive gifts: Authenticity, Renewal and Soulfulness. This isn't paint-by-number. Who you are informs the process & product at The Art Therapy Studio. |
To participate in and benefit from Art Therapy no artistic skills are needed.
You work at your own pace to build skills & comfort with the materials over time.

Art is a verb, not a noun.
Making is not something that's relegated to a talented few! As long as we've been a species, we've translated and made meaning from our experiences through expression. You are part of this linage. You can explore, capture & work with your experiences via your own hands and imagery. You can make things that give you that inner yell of, "Yes! It's just like that!" The majority of people I talk with don't believe they can make art that captures what they want to express. You're not alone if you think it's not possible for you to express yourself this way. But you can. With my support you can make things that give you insight & help you to feel understood and seen. The stuff you make can hold your confusing, complex, contradictory experiences all at once & leave you with the satisfaction of expression when words have failed. AND It can hold what works well for you, too! |
I LOVE ART THERAPY & Believe you will, too. I'd be honored to work with you.
