I am a licensed professional counselor and a board-certified art therapist in private practice in Longmont, CO. I work with adults facing the challenges of depression, trauma, relationship, communication and anger issues, body image, grief, anxiety, “stuckness,” and life transitions. I work with clients using both verbal psychotherapy and non-verbal methods (art therapy, photography, and writing). Clients I have worked with have found art-making, such as collage, painting, drawing, poetry, as well as photography, productive methods to reduce stress, promote self-awareness, and gain insights about themselves. Like art therapy, animal-assisted therapy can be a rich and exciting endeavor. So, if you choose, you will have the opportunity to work with animals (goats, alpacas, dogs, and now a horse!) in a therapeutic context. I believe that combining art therapy and animal-assisted therapy is a tremendously fruitful combination of modalities. If you'd like to discuss these options and see if my practice would be a good fit for you, we can schedule a free consultation.
