ART INSIGHT

Services for Children and Adolescents

Art is a natural language for children and adolescents.  Your child will find art therapy to be a welcoming and fun alternative to verbal therapy.  It is difficult to talk about painful issues, especially for children who are still learning how to express themselves.  Art provides children the opportunity to discover themselves, build new coping styles, and communicate emotions that may otherwise be avoided when using words.  If your child isn't talking about what bothers him or her, it may be time to use some art!

While a child or adolescent is in therapy, I work very closely with his or her parent(s).  Improving communication between parent and child is one of my main goals since I believe this improves a child's mental health.

All of my individual therapy and family therapy services are on a sliding-scale fee to be discussed on an individual basis during a free consultation visit.
