I welcome you to my Art Therapy and Counseling practice! After receiving my Bachelor of Arts from Missoula’s U of M I completed my Master of Arts in Art Therapy Counseling from Marylhurst University, Oregon. I have held professional licensures with the State of Oregon (2011-2013) and the State of Montana since 2013. I am also a nationally registered Art Therapist (ATR). In addition to traditional talk therapy, I incorporate Art Therapy for children, teens, adults, families, couples and groups. My methods are rooted in foundations of attachment, neurobiology, and resilience. I introduce mindfulness and meditation with the workings of one’s brain which allows one to develop self-compassion and empowerment. My approach is eclectic and dynamic with emphasis placed on creating interpersonal safety and rapport through empathy, humor, and honesty. Efforts to change self-perception, emotions, and behaviors require work both in session and out of session. Some change will occur quickly and easily, but some change requires slow, deliberate, and repeated efforts. My office is graced with a four footed "assistant," MJ,
