​Girl Pushes Paint - ​

MEET GIRL

​Committed to enhancing lives through art experiences

Picture
​
​I have been a professional early childhood teacher/advocate for a decade and a self-made artist since the day I was born. My classrooms always hummed with creative arts as a means to explore social-emotional issues, open up difficult conversations and find our way back to the present moment. As my enthusiasm for therapeutic art grew, so did my self-awareness, insight, and personal healing.

Currently, I am pursuing my Masters degree in Art Therapy/Counseling as well as working toward my Certification in Alcohol and Substance Abuse Counseling (Trainee). I recognize that the study and practice of art therapy is challenging on all levels. In order to best help others I know I must keep myself healthy, mind-body-soul. I will not only be a student and practitioner of Therapeutic Art, I will remain an active participant in my own personal well-rounded wellness program. Art and art experiences are powerful healers and I testify to its effect. Over the years I have learned that the question to beg is not, “Why me?” but “Why not?” and “Where’s my paint?” With this outlook, I feel energized and excited to help others empower themselves with the transformative power of therapeutic art.
