Registered Art Therapist, Registered Psychotherapist

 

I’m a registered art therapist, psychotherapist and workshop facilitator offering creative resources for connecting with your inner muse and wise self.  I believe we are all creative beings. My journey as an art therapist began in 1993, when I decided to study to become an art therapist at the Toronto Art Therapy Institute. My love of using art to help others has continued to flourish since. For over 20 years my work as an art therapist has grown to include the other expressive arts, a natural transition when working with children and engaging the inner child of adults.

I have had the honor of witnessing the journeys of  many parents and children as well.  I have enjoyed this immensely, and you can find some of my offerings at my sister site www.Offbeatfamily.com, where you will find expressive arts resources for parents and children.

I studied to be an Art Therapist at the Toronto Art Therapy Institute and currently am on faculty there.  I then went on to work in various clinical settings helping others find solace in their creative expression.  If you are interested more in my work experience please feel free to check out my LinkedIn profile.  I am a Registered Art Therapist with the Canadian Art therapy Association, (you can find me listed in their online directory) and a Registered Psychotherapist with the College of Registered Psychotherapists of Ontario.

As an Art Therapist with over 20 years of expereince, I have been working in children’s mental health with children and adults. I am passionate about connecting people with their creativity and inner strengths through the expressive arts. I use a person centered, narrative and mindfulness approach I believe deeply that we all have the tools within us to live a happy and fulfilled life no matter what our past experiences or present challenges. Puppet making, therapeutic stories and guided meditations are some of the many tools I use to help guide others toward their inner wisdom.

Musefully yours,
