Description: Our bodies have a inner knowing to heal and move through life’s challenges. Expression in the form of art is a profound tool in unlocking what we are not able to express, allowing growth and healing to occur. I offer individual and group expressive arts therapy, and creative sensory art workshops for adults, seniors, children and adolescents. Drawing, sculpture, painting, music, play, writing and movement are used to encourage deeper connection and balance between mind, body and heart giving expression to life’s challenges. Validating and honoring every experience . Exploring, expressing and creating through the arts promotes self awareness, compassion,well being and growth to meet with life's possibilities. Creating a higher quality of life and understanding of self. My hours are Monday – Friday 9-5pm Wed, Fri and Sat 4-8pm
