Individual Insight Oriented Psychotherapy (45 mins)
Art Therapists are master's level practitioners who are trained to use psychotherapy in conjunction with art making. At Big Apple Therapy, I welcome clients to work however they feel would be most effective for them. Psychotherapy can help you to identify certain thoughts patterns that have an effect on the way you relate to others and self as well as in relationships. Psychotherapy can help you to resolve issues stemming from grief, trauma, depression and anxiety as well as feel supported through times of transition (divorce, moving, illness ,etc..). Talking with a therapist can help you alleviate feelings of being "stuck" and assist you with bringing self-awareness into relationship conflicts and self sabotaging behaviors. It will also help with building stronger relationships with yourself and others.
