THE POWER OF SOMATIC ART THERAPY!
Time and again people remind me of why I believe in and love this work. Joy, pain, memory, healing, emotion and spirituality emerge through art. Voice, identity, desire, passion, and grief come when people least expect it. Empowerment, connection, and relaxation are other gifts I see daily. For those who call themselves artists and those who do not, all were once a creator as a child, and many adults and adolescents have shut this part of themselves away. In doing so, they also close off the powerful and healing part of themselves called creativity. I hope to help open the stream of creative connection so that all can live more fully.
​
Clients have called me an archeologist of their souls—helping them to reconnect to their own creative power and heal from trauma, depression, anxiety and grief. Below are challenges faced and ways that people have found relief and ease through our work together.

MORE ABOUT ART THERAPY
Art therapy is a form of expressive therapy that uses art materials, such as paints, drawing, clay, collage and even digital media such as photography and tablet technology. Art therapy combines traditional psychotherapeutic theories and techniques with psychological, interpersonal and somatic aspects of the creative process and self-expression. In mental health, art therapy is used in many clinical settings with diverse populations including children, adults, and families. As a part of integrative health care, art therapy and expressive arts therapy (art, music, drama, movement, and writing) complement and support traditional and complementary health practices and interventions.

The American Art Therapy Association describes art therapy as “a mental health profession that uses the creative process of art making to improve and enhance the physical, mental and emotional well-being of individuals of all ages. It is based on the belief that the creative process involved in artistic self-expression helps people to resolve conflicts and problems, develop interpersonal skills, manage behavior, reduce stress, increase self-esteem and self-awareness, and achieve insight.”
