Because Sometimes Words Just Don’t Cut It
Art therapy is where creativity meets healing—a way to process emotions and experiences without needing a script. Think of it as talk therapy’s more colorful, slightly rebellious cousin. Instead of analyzing feelings through words alone, you get to paint, draw, or sculpt them out. And you don’t need to be Picasso for it to work! Studies show art therapy can reduce stress, improve self-awareness, and help folks untangle tough emotions. It’s less about making museum-worthy pieces and more about getting to know yourself on a deeper, messier, more vibrant level. It’s ideal for those moments when words just don’t quite cut it—art steps in to say what your mind might be tiptoeing around. You might find clarity in a brushstroke, or release a stubborn thought with a splash of color. And the best part? There’s no right or wrong; even the wildest scribble has a story to tell. Art therapy invites you to experiment, process, and connect with yourself in a way that’s as unique as your own creative style.
The Payoff
Let’s be real: managing anxiety, perfectionism, and low self-esteem is a tough gig.
But imagine if you could paint, scribble, or mold those struggles into something you could actually laugh at.
With Art Therapy, you can! Got anxiety? Instead of spiraling, you can slap some paint on a canvas, maybe make a “stress monster” that you control—now that’s power.
And for all you perfectionists out there,
art therapy is like your personal permission slip to make
beautiful messes.
Seriously, the less perfect, the better!
Embrace the happy accidents; Bob Ross would be proud.
It’s time to rewrite the story. It’s time to take back your life.
Now I know what you’re thinking… “Ash, I just don’t have the time!”.
I hear you. AND I’m also going to challenge you on this.
Carving out the time to put yourself first (and no this doesn’t mean your selfish, it’s self love) is going to pay off in the long run.
Less burnout, less grey hair, less overwhelm, less arguments with your kids, spouse, friends…the mail man. (Yeah we don’t have to get into that one).
Plus, I’ve got a flexible schedule and I offer teletherapy to suit whatever schedule (no matter how Tetris-like it looks).
And it all begins with just 15 minutes of your time…
Turning Stress into a Masterpiece (or at Least a Really Cool Scribble)
I gotchu.
Choosing to invest your time in therapy is an important decision. You want to make sure you have all the facts.
I mean, through choosing to start therapy, you’re choosing to prioritize yourself, and that’s a big deal. You’re fricken awesome, and I am so stoked for you to get started!
Our sessions will be 1:1 via video call or phone call. Within your session, we can dive into whatever areas of your life you want to focus on. Anxiety around work? Yep let’s go there! Social anxiety in groups?
Let’s create about it.
In art therapy sessions, we’ll dive right into creative expression—no art degree or fancy supplies required! Feel like scribbling furiously? Go for it. Want to paint with your fingers? Even better! Together, we’ll make sense of the chaos and maybe even have a laugh at the process. #winningatlife.
A.K.A. living your badass life on the regular.
That’s exactly what Art Therapy is. Art Therapy is where your feelings get to play with paint, and perfectionism takes a coffee break.
You’ll start to see the magic in your unique, unfiltered expressions—
and trust me, even the quirkiest stick figures have charm.
By the end, you’re not just “making art”; you’re reshaping how you see yourself and the world around you, one doodle at a time.
Goodbye, Anxiety!
Say good-f*cking-bye to anxiety.
Even if you’re not *quite* there yet, I encourage you to take just 15 minutes out of your day to chat with me to
see whether Art Therapy is a good fit for you.
Let’s get to work!
