I specialize in art therapy I assist children and adults with behavior problems associated with attention deficit. I have worked in the field of Art Therapy for over two decades, and I have helped many different types of mental health issues using art therapy techniques. Art Therapy has helped clients suffering from anxiety, depression, trauma, loss, and many neurological deficits where cognitive decline has occurred.
Adults find using Art Therapy easy, for example;
We may use painting, clay, and drawing. Computer Work may also become part of your session if required.
Traditional talk therapy is a very different approach than art therapy. In that, creating images helps the person understand their feelings and then makes it much easier for them to express what they are feeling.
When teenagers want help through troubled times.
Art therapy can provide a means of self-satisfaction and expression. By gaining a sense of self-worth they can learn to stabilize their emotional systems.
For adults and children who wish to improve in school (ADHD) or their workplace, we will use a highly successful computer-based program. Along with the computer program we will use very specific art therapy exercises to help with the neurogenesis process of building new brain pathways. To see if you qualify please contact me.

I use Art Therapy in my practice, in your first session we will explore what brought you to therapy and then decide the most appropriate ways to help you make progress. With Art Therapy, we'll look at how your thoughts affect your emotions and experiences. During treatment, you will explore recognizing the triggers that may keep you from managing your feelings better.
