Art Therapy Services
Chicago trained Art Therapist and Artist will provide you with an emotionally safe environment and quality art supplies for experiencing Art Therapy.
Psychological growth, insight, therapy proceeds primarily from working with art supplies and our verbal processing of your art and dream work.
No art making experience is necessary to benefit, however an interest in using art supplies is important.
The images created in Art Therapy as well as your dream material become the objects of our focus. Together we appreciate and process the art work and dreams as they become available.
The imagery revealed though working with dreams and art supplies guides our direction in exploring pathways that usually lead to greater meaning, self appreciation and self understanding.
Art Therapy is an excellent companion treatment for patients being medically treated for symptoms of psychological distress, such as unresolved grief, excessive Depression/Anxiety and other clinical maladies, with the permission of the prescribing physician.
Within this emotionally safe and comfortable environment, you are encouraged to relax and feel free to be yourself completely, secure in unconditional positive regard for you and your work.
Often much can happen in one session, perhaps because of the truth of the old proverb "One picture is worth 1,000 words."
