About
I am now a Licensed Professional Counselor as of November 2017 in the state of CT, trained in both psychotherapy and art therapy. My focus at my studio is holding creative art classes & art therapy for children, teens and adults. I graduated from Albertus Magnus College in 2014 with a Masters in Art and Art Therapy, and I offer art therapy sessions for people of all ages (individual & groups). My goal is to help people through self-expression but also explore their creativity. In addition, my studio space will be holding special events and parties throughout the year. Take a look around the site and if you have any questions, feel free to contact me. I look forward to hearing from and working with you!

Art Therapy
Art Therapy is a type of therapy that encourages self-expression through art, in addition to the conversation. Traditional counseling techniques are used with the use of art materials. The act of painting, drawing, and creating art can be very therapeutic for many individuals. Throughout each therapy session, specific art techniques and goals are developed to assist an individual through personal struggles. The creative process of art-making helps those who are unable to verbalize their feelings through conversation alone. Piecing together a story or a theme through art may bring self-awareness and clarity.
