Overcome anxiety and overwhelm through art therapy.

This life doesn’t look the way you expected it to.

Let’s be real, these are tough times we are living in. It’s easy to get bogged down and paralyzed by fear in the face of the daily news alone. I’m right there with you and the thing that I KNOW helps is knowing you are not alone here. If you’re like me, I know you long for a clear mind and carefree mood—simpler times. You remember a version of yourself that had dreams and passions and a sense of humor! While we can’t control what’s happening out there, we do have some power over how we respond to it. Let me help you as we both navigate the twists and turns and frightening unknowns of these modern times. Through art, creativity, laughter and connecting with existential hope, not existential dread.

Art Therapy can help.

You don’t have to move through life’s unknowns alone.

Hi, I’m Carolyn and I am so glad you are here. I help people connect with their inner strength to rise above anxiety and old patterns that get in the way of decision making by providing a safe space for self-expression and self-exploration.

Sometimes words get in the way and muddy our sense of truth. Art therapy can help you tap into the wisdom within you by clearing the noise of “should” and “what if” and “if only” to get to the core of what you know you really need and want.

People come away from sessions with me with a deeper knowledge of who they are, how their brain-body connection works and how to live a life of ease even when life throws a curveball and doesn’t go as planned.

The setting appears to be a cozy indoor space decorated with string lights.
