Why not? 3 Common Objections to Psychotherapy

  1. “I’m not creative,” or “I can’t make art.”

    You don’t have to have any prior art experience or art proficiency to be able to benefit from art processes. My clients with no art experience benefit just as fully as those with art experience. And, depending on what you need, art process interventions may or may not be part of your unique treatment plan. 
     
  2. I can’t afford it.
    While psychotherapy can seem expensive, it’s nothing compared to the cost of not doing this work. You are worth it.
     
  3. I’ve been to so many healers and practitioners and no one has been able to help me. Why will this be different?

    Body-centered and art psychotherapies are designed to bring you into direct and immediate relationship with yourself. You no longer risk giving your power away to a middleman. You will gain immediate skills to be able to see yourself clearly and align with yourself. The therapeutic modality itself is empowering. 

    As an art psychotherapist I use art-making as a way to get you out of your head and into your body and heart (where your greatest wisdoms lie). If you've talked about your issues for a long time without seeing significant changes in your life as a result, it's time to try a modality that will take you directly into the crux of the matter... and deliver to you a fuller version of yourself on the other side.
