We focus on creative accountability to support clients in connecting with their personal values and goals. Art therapy is the main intervention used to address mental health symptoms. You do not need to be considered an artist to engage with art.

I am a cognitive behavioral therapist, meaning that we will consider: What do you think about your situation? How do you feel about it? What are you doing about it? Then, together, we'll figure out what needs to change and how to accomplish it.
We will address all issues you are needing to talk about. Gaining self awareness will be a significant aspect of counseling and using this self awareness to learn what is causing you problems, how you can heal, and feel empowered to live differently.
