Let's Get Started
““I view art as a medicine that proceeds through different phases of creation and reflection.””
What happens in a session?
Each session opens with a check-in where you can share where you are at in the present tense. For example, “I’ve had a great day. Really feeling tingly and bright.” It’s great to include physical sensation awareness to let ourselves arrive fully to the session.
A light physical warm-up.
A theme for our session is introduced.
Exploration of the theme happens next depending on desires and curiosities of the client. These ways can encompass writing, drawing, sculpting, moving, singing, meditation, painting, origami, fabric arts.
Discoveries are shared.
Closing
““Expressive Arts Therapy is not about being an artist, it’s about using art to create a better life.””
What’s my Therapeutic Style?
Sessions are client led. Which means I look for cues and clues from you to see what materials or themes might be helpful to explore during our session. I make suggestions and you get to approve what we dive into. For example, I might suggest, “Do you want to explore this theme in writing?” And you might respond with, “Actually, I want to play with this kalimba I brought today.”
I seek to provide a safe and welcoming environment where we can explore creativity together to access our inner knowing.
