Art Therapy In-Person Sessions

Our in-person art therapy sessions are designed to be a deeply immersive and holistic experience, tailored to support your emotional, mental, and spiritual well-being. Each session is crafted to meet your unique needs and may include a variety of enriching activities:

​

Visitations and Sessions May Include:

• Setting Up Materials: We'll start by arranging all the materials you'll need, creating a welcoming and inspiring environment for your creative exploration.

• Shopping for Materials: If desired, we'll embark on a collaborative shopping experience to select the perfect materials that resonate with you and your artistic goals.

• Assistance with Creations: Whether you're new to art or an experienced creator, I’ll be there to assist you in bringing your vision to life, offering guidance and support as needed.

• Learning Techniques: Discover new art techniques and expand your creative skill set with personalized instruction tailored to your interests and abilities.

• Art Appreciation/Observation: Take time to appreciate and observe art, both your own and others, to gain new perspectives and deepen your connection to the creative process.

• Reminiscence: Engage in the therapeutic process of reminiscing, using art as a medium to explore and reflect on meaningful memories and experiences.

• Rehabilitation Art: For those in recovery or rehabilitation, art therapy can serve as a powerful tool to support healing, offering a creative outlet to process emotions and experiences.​ 

 

What to Expect in a Virtual Session:

• Predetermined Art Directives: Before your session, we may agree on a specific art directive tailored to your needs. You can use items from around your home or purchase basic materials through our online shop. These materials will guide the creative process during our session.

• Digital Art & Art Apps: Embrace technology by using digital art platforms and apps as a medium for expression. This approach allows for flexibility and creativity, offering new ways to explore art therapy.

• Music Integration: Predetermined music lists can be incorporated into your session, creating an atmosphere that enhances relaxation and creativity. Whether you prefer a soothing background or an inspiring playlist, music can play a significant role in your virtual art therapy experience.

 

Holistic Enhancements:

Depending on the setting and your personal preferences, an art therapy session may also begin with:

• Sound Healing: Harness the power of sound to create a peaceful, meditative state, setting the tone for your creative work.

• Reiki: Experience the gentle, healing energy of Reiki to balance and align your energy, fostering a deeper connection to your art.

• Meditation with Tea: Start your session with a calming tea meditation, allowing you to center yourself and open up to the creative process.

 

Plant Medicine Integration:

For those who feel called to explore the healing power of plants, we offer the integration of plant medicine into your art therapy journey. Sitting with plants can be a transformative addition to your daily life, offering grounding and insight.

Tea Ceremony Integration: After a few art therapy sessions, we may introduce the art of drinking tea into your sessions. This ritual involves sitting with the tea before, during, and after a session, allowing you to connect more deeply with yourself and the creative process.

Psychedelic Plant Medicine Integration: If you have journeyed with psychedelic plant medicine and are seeking ways to integrate those profound experiences into your life, we specialize in guiding you through that process. Using creative modalities, mindfulness, and gratitude, we help you weave these experiences into your everyday life, enriching your sense of purpose and well-being.

This holistic approach ensures that your art therapy experience is not just about creating art, but about nurturing your entire being, helping you to live a more mindful, grateful, and fulfilling life.
