Individual Counseling & Art Therapy

I offer integrative sessions that combine counseling and art therapy, tailored to your unique needs. This approach allows for both verbal exploration and creative expression, providing multiple avenues for self-discovery, personal growth, and emotional healing.

Each client receives an art journal to use throughout our work together. This tool serves as a personal space for reflection, creative expression, and growth. High-quality art supplies are provided for your use during all in-person sessions at no additional cost.

Payment Options

I know that figuring out payment can feel overwhelming. Here are the options I offer to help make therapy possible for you:

Self-Pay

Many clients choose to pay out of pocket. This option offers the most privacy and flexibility since no information is shared with insurance companies.

In-Network Insurance

I am currently in-network with several insurance companies listed below. If I am in-network with your plan, I will handle the billing for you. You will only be responsible for your copay, coinsurance, or deductible.

  • Aetna

  • Carelon Behavioral Health

  • Cigna

  • Optum

  • Quest Behavioral Health

  • United Healthcare

  • Blue Cross Blue Shield of SC- COMING SOON

  • Oscar- COMING SOON

  • Oxford- COMING SOON

Out-of-Network Insurance

If I am not in-network with your insurance provider, you may still have benefits you can use. I can give you a Superbill (a special receipt) that you send to your insurance for possible reimbursement. Every plan is different, so I encourage you to call your provider to ask what they cover.

Sliding Scale

I reserve a limited number of reduced-fee spots for clients who need them. If finances are a concern, please reach out so we can discuss options.

FAQs

  • According to the American Art Therapy Association:

    “Art Therapy is an integrative mental health and human services profession that enriches the lives of individuals, families, and communities through active artmaking, creative process, applied psychological theory, and human experience within a psychotherapeutic relationship.

    Art Therapy, facilitated by a professional art therapist, effectively supports personal and relational treatment goals as well as community concerns. Art Therapy is used to improve cognitive and sensory-motor functions, foster self-esteem and self-awareness, cultivate emotional resilience, promote insight, enhance social skills, reduce and resolve conflicts and distress, and advance societal and ecological change.

    Art therapists are master-level clinicians who work with people of all ages across a broad spectrum of practice. Guided by ethical standards and scope of practice, their education and supervised training prepares them for culturally proficient work with diverse populations in a variety of settings. Honoring individuals’ values and beliefs, art therapists work with people who are challenged with medical and mental health problems, as well as individuals seeking emotional, creative, and spiritual growth.

    Through integrative methods, art therapy engages the mind, body, and spirit in ways that are distinct from verbal articulation alone. Kinesthetic, sensory, perceptual, and symbolic opportunities invite alternative modes of receptive and expressive communication, which can circumvent the limitations of language. Visual and symbolic expression gives voice to experience, and empowers individual, communal, and societal transformation.”

    In short: it’s a way of combining art and psychology to support healing, growth, and emotional well-being—all within the context of a safe, supportive therapeutic relationship.

  • Sometimes it’s hard to put things into words, or words alone just aren’t enough. Art therapy offers another way in. Through drawing, collage, or even just simple marks on a page, creative expression can help you process emotions, understand yourself more fully, and move forward in meaningful ways.

    Art therapy isn’t about being artistic or making something “good.” It’s about showing up honestly, getting curious, and letting the creative process guide the work.

    As a Board Certified Art Therapist (ATR-BC), I’ve been trained to use art in clinically grounded, evidence-based ways. If you’re looking for something deeper than talking—or maybe talking has never felt quite right—art therapy might be a powerful fit.

  • Sure do! While creativity is a big part of how I work, we don’t have to use art if it doesn’t feel right for you. My goal is to meet you where you are.
