Healing, Growth & Insight Through Creativity
Welcome
Do any of these situations sound familiar to you?
-
You’re searching for a deeper understanding of yourself and want to explore your inner world.
-
Words just don’t capture what you’re feeling—or sometimes there are no words at all.
-
You’ve tried talk therapy and various coping skills but it feels like nothing has really changed.
-
You get stuck in your head and can’t seem to move forward.
-
You feel an emptiness, like something important is missing in your life.
-
You’re unsure where your life is headed.
-
You’ve done all the things the world expected of you, but somewhere along the way, you lost yourself.
-
You’ve never had the chance to really discover your own wants, needs, desires, and interests.
-
You’d love to try making art, but that little voice says you’re “not good enough” or that art is only for “real artists.”
I’m here because I believe creativity is for everyone. My passion is helping people reconnect with their heart and soul, discover their unique creative voice, and find new ways to understand and express themselves—beyond words.
Services
I offer art psychotherapy, traditional psychotherapy, and creativity workshops to foster self-discovery and growth. Join me on this transformative journey through the power of art.
Art Psychotherapy
Art psychotherapy provides a unique and creative avenue for self-exploration and emotional expression, especially in moments when words may fall short. Through various artistic mediums individuals can connect with their feelings, gaining insights into their inner world. This therapeutic process not only fosters personal growth but also encourages healing and resilience. Explore the power of art therapy and the artist within you.
Traditional Psychotherapy
At times, we all face challenges in our lives, and reaching out for help can be tough. I offer a safe and non-judgmental environment where you can explore the issues that concern you. I see therapy as a journey, walking alongside you on your individual path and supporting you in ways that address your unique needs.
Creativity Workshops
Get ready to jump into the colorful world of art! You’ll get to play around with all sorts of materials and find some really fun ways to express your creativity. Plus, you’ll connect with your creative side and learn a bit more about yourself. Come join us for these fun artistic adventures!

Hi. I'm Cheryl
Art has been a part of my life since I was a little kid, from coloring on my grandparents' freshly painted walls at the age of 2, to painting for hours in my room as a teen, and as an adult, always being involved in some type of art (pottery, collage, acrylic painting, alcohol ink painting, and watercolor painting).
I began my healing journey later in life and found that the creative process was one of the most powerful tools I had to express myself when I could not find words. This led me to becoming an art therapist, where I could integrate my love of art with helping people on their journeys.
With over 20 years of experience as a Licensed Art Therapist, Licensed Clinical Social Worker, and Psychoanalyst, I recognize the uniqueness of each individual and that no 'one-size-fits-all' approach exists. My role is to support you on your journey, listening deeply to you, and working together to uncover the most effective strategies to meet your needs.
I am especially passionate about using art to express difficult emotions and helping individuals connect with their bodies and inner wisdom. Additionally, I am passionate about helping people access their 'inner artist' and explore creativity as a means to enhance their well-being.
