Art Therapy, what’s that?

Art Therapy is a specialized form of therapy that combines the creative process of art making and traditional talk therapy. Art therapists, like myself, are trained clinical professionals equipped with a master's level or higher, who utilize a wide range of artistic techniques and materials to help individuals creatively navigate and explore difficult and complex thoughts, feelings, and ideas in a safe and supportive environment.

As an Art Therapist, I have been actively providing services for more than 7 years. My professional roles range, from providing clinical art therapy within the behavioral healthcare system to offering non-clinical, community-based groups and workshops tailored to meet the needs of various organizations and businesses throughout various Chicago neighborhoods.
