THERAPEUTIC ART SESSIONS
Art making is a highly effective tool to build important social-emotional skills while relieving stress and anxiety in both children and adults. These sessions are process-based, and tailored to the individual's needs and goals, and are strictly 1:1. For younger clients or those with guardians, caregivers will be involved in the planning and review of the student's progress. Goals may include - but are certainly not limited to - frustration tolerance, emotional regulation, increasing self-esteem, and developing mindfulness skills.
During my 10-year career as a Creative Arts Therapist, I had the opportunity to work with clients of all ages, with a wide range of social, developmental, psychiatric, and sensory challenges. I am also fluent in American Sign Language, and welcome members of the deaf and hard-of-hearing community, as well as those with visual impairments. Please note that Heartspace Gallery & Studio is not accessible to those with significant mobility challenges, but I will happily travel to your home for our sessions.
Please contact me for more information and pricing. These sessions begin at $75 per hour.
PRIVATE LESSONS
Private lessons are tailored to the individual skill-level. goals, interests, and special needs of the student. This unique offering is what sets the experience apart from traditional group classes in which students are directed toward a particular medium and subject of the instructor's choosing. Students are exposed to a wide array of drawing, painting, and sculptural media, and are supported through the creative process based on their own creative goals. This approach ignites creativity and problem solving, instills confidence and self-direction. Semi-private lessons (2 students) are also available.
Private lesson schedules are arranged with the instructor. Lessons begin at $65/hour. Materials fees will vary based on medium, but generally a beginner's supplies will cost $75.
