Realizing you have a problem that you can’t solve on your own is a brave first step for any person. Seeking out help and support is one of the toughest decisions to make. If you allow us to be a part of your journey, we will be here to support you & work with you to help you become the best version of yourself. In our years of specializing in trauma therapy and art therapy, I have seen people on various kinds of paths. Through tailoring my practice to meet the specific needs of every client, I can help you learn strategies to address your current difficulties and help you confidently create a better tomorrow.
I am an Art Psychotherapist who takes an eclectic and client-centred approach to working with clients where they are at, drawing from trauma and attachment informed research and practice as well as incorporating mindfulness, compassion and creativity into sessions.
No matter what struggles you are coping with, it is never too late to change your course and develop the necessary strategies to leave yesterday’s problems behind and realize tomorrow’s successes. At Martin Art Therapy and Psychotherapy, you will have your specific needs met in a way that is collaborative, comfortable, and conscientious.
