When engaging in clinical art therapy, I will not be teaching you how to draw or paint in a technical sense. Instead, I will introduce different art prompts / materials which will help inspire your creativity!

  We’ll focus on how you feel during the process of art making, not the final product or what the art looks like once you’re finished.

 

What supplies do I need?

In-person sessions:

  I will provide basic art materials. If you are interested in working with other materials, feel free to bring them to the session!

  

Virtual Sessions:

  You will provide the materials you would like to work with. I would be happy to recommend supplies.

 

How frequently should sessions take place?

  It really depends on you! I see some clients once a week, once every two weeks or even once a month. Tune into what your needs are and we can find a schedule that meets your needs!

 

Do you accept insurance?

  All fees are private pay. Superbills may be provided for clinical services. Limited sliding scale spots at a discounted rate for individuals with financial need. Please reach out with any questions.

 

“I see the terms “psychotherapy,” “therapy,” and “counseling,” and “coaching,” out there.  What’s the difference?”

  Typically, counseling is geared towards addressing a particular concern within a defined timeframe, whereas psychotherapy (or therapy, for short) encompasses a broader scope, delving into more intricate and comprehensive issues. As practitioners, we adeptly employ both methodologies based on individual requirements, ensuring a well-rounded and tailored approach for our clients.

The term "coaching" introduces an element with potentially distinct implications. Unlike counseling or therapy, there's no obligatory licensing to present oneself as a coach or life coach. Despite this, numerous licensed experts do provide coaching services. It's crucial to exercise caution regarding the training and expertise of any practitioner you contemplate collaborating with.

 

How is clinical art therapy different than non-clinical art therapy?

  Non clinical art therapy or therapeutic arts is great for daily stress management and to explore art on an emotional level. Clinical art therapy is a form of psychotherapy. Typically trauma work is done at this level of care. Diagnoses may be provided and treated at this level of care.
