Allow me to take this opportunity to introduce myself; my name is Christy Herdman, the sole proprietor of CRATE Art Therapy. I offer one-on-one art therapy sessions, exploring mindful, art-based activities to enhance emotional well-being. I provide a safe space for you to build the skills necessary to cope with challenges related to anxiety, depression, emotion regulation, self-esteem, grief & loss. I help you to dig deeper into yourself, notice a subjective experience from a compassionate viewpoint; create awareness around intense emotional responses; and develop coping skills to support you in times of stress.
My therapeutic approach begins from the vantage point of a growth mindset and meets you where you are on your journey. My passion is working with children to help them to navigate emotions effectively using a mindful, art-based practice. My overarching goal is to use art as a medium to enhance the emotional intelligence of the next generation.
I stand with all humankind, no matter their cultural background, race, gender, or sexual orientation. I am committed to standing up against hate speech & racial inequality. I strive to be an ally, be empathetic, & learn more about who you are as a person. Language matters: I will use your self-identified pronouns to reference your individuality as a person.
