Our Services:

We offer a range of services designed specifically for individuals seeking art psychotherapy and trauma-focused therapy, including:

  1. Art Therapy – Our art therapy sessions involve using various forms of art, such as drawing, painting, and sculpture, to help individuals express and process their emotions. Our therapists provide guidance and support throughout the creative process to help individuals explore their experiences and develop healthy coping mechanisms.
  2. Trauma-focused Art therapy – Our trauma-focused art therapy sessions are designed to help individuals overcome the effects of trauma. We use the Instinctual Trauma Response™ (ITR) method is an evidence-supported method that focuses on treating the roots of trauma. The ITR™ method gives traumatic memories order, verbal coding, historical context, and an objective, third person view that protects the person from re-experiencing the trauma and fosters their capacity for empathy for themselves and others. We also use evidence-based practices, such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), to help individuals process their traumatic experiences and develop healthy coping mechanisms.
  3. Trauma-focused therapy – Our trauma-focused counseling also uses other evidence-based practices, such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), to help individuals process their traumatic experiences and develop healthy coping mechanisms.
