  • Sessions are guided by your needs. You may use art materials, talk with your therapist, or do a combination of both. Some sessions are quiet and reflective, others more interactive—there’s no wrong way to show up.

  • That depends on your comfort and interests. We offer a variety of materials, like drawing, painting, collage, sculpture, and mixed media. You’ll never be pushed to use anything you don’t feel comfortable with.

  • Yes. We offer art therapy for children 8 and up, as well as teens navigating anxiety, identity, trauma, and more. Sessions are age-appropriate and focus on creating emotional safety.
