I originally created Art as a Healing Practice twenty years ago. It emerged organically out of my own personal practice of blending guided meditation, visual art, and writing. Working with these modalities in sequence was, and is, a powerful part of my own healing journey, and, at some point I
began to shape it into a form that I could share with others. I have offered this body of work live in the studio as individual sessions, series, and retreats. I have crafted it to an online format, and a self-study workshop series. I have had the privilege to witness its powerful effects on many.

Expressive arts therapy is a multimodal, holistic approach to counseling. It acknowledges the complexity of human experience by facilitating the client in exploring all aspects of the self, by inquiring through the imagination and the body about subjective experience, and expanding the play space to allow for new possibilities and shifts in consciousness that lead to desired changes in one’s life.
