Art Therapist with over 20 years of experience working will older adults living with dementia. In-Home or downtown studio appointments are available. Art Therapy can help us see ourselves differently, most importantly, acknowledging positive attributes when experiencing an unprecedented loss with few experiences supporting the essential sense of identity. Art-making engages complex mental processes that regulate emotional distress, validate physical experiences, and speak volumes through the symbols we make. The metaphor expressed in the artwork validates knowledge. As such, it can reach into the core of our being and assure the individual they are loved and cared for, esteemed and valued, and belong to a community.

Art Supplies Provided – We will bring all the supplies needed for our session, and the art you create is yours to keep with no additional fees. This commitment is included in our standard fee of $150 for a 90-minute appointment.
