Art Therapy in Niwot, CO

I love working with people who are curious about making change - whether it's healing, growing, learning, or exploring their identity and goals. My passions are resiliency, creativity, and connection. I want to help clients foster these traits and forge new paths forward. I help clients use their existing strengths to overcome obstacles and to help them learn about how our past experiences and beliefs manifest in our present bodies, minds, feelings, and behaviors. I also use art, music, and movement as therapeutic interventions to help the body process trauma and overwhelming stressful experiences.

"We don't have to do all of it alone. We were never meant to."-Brene Brown. I whole heartedly believe that healing occurs when we invite others to step into our story and walk along side us in times of struggle, hurt, and unknown. Because of this, I consider it an honor and privilege to be able to join you in your search for healing and wholeness. Although I am equipped to work with individuals in any stage of life I am especially passionate about working with children, teens, and young adults struggling with anything from anxiety and depression to trauma and self discovery.

If you're a woman in transition and/or have a history of trauma/PTSD, I'm here to help you move through unknown territory with more ease. It often takes working through self-esteem issues, feelings of overwhelm, sadness and self-doubt. A trauma history can profoundly interfere with you living your best life. Perhaps you're looking for a change in career and life purpose, or maybe you're dealing with chronic illness, loss of a pet/human or recently out of a longtime relationship/marriage. I offer you an effective approach to helping you feel more uplifted, grounded, and on your way to living a a more empowered and fulfilling life.

I strive to provide a safe and therapeutic space for individuals to work on a variety of issues. I believe that each of us has inherent abilities to heal and live a successful and balanced life. A therapist or counselor's role is to use learned skills and therapeutic modalities in an empathic voice to assist individuals in overcoming the obstacles in their life. My goal is to have that person feel mentally and emotionally healthy AND to thrive. I hope to help you unlock that potential within yourself using such modalities as general psychotherapy, art therapy, EMDR, DBT and mindfulness-based psychotherapy.

You feel stuck between being true to yourself and losing or disappointing those you love. You are tired of feeling invisible or alone. You feel anxious, might never have felt good enough, are burned out, and fear you won’t ever get to live a life you want to be living. You are tired of fitting into the box of who you are supposed to be and want to know, or be, who you really are. You long to feel more free, confident, secure, able to make decisions, and able to reach for your dreams or have a life you feel good in.

Harmony Arts Counseling is an art therapy practice for people of all ages interested in using art to help understand and express their emotions. This process is often both intuitive and fun for all ages, but especially children, as they naturally tend to be more creative. Another one of my specialties includes children, adults, and caregivers dealing with medical conditions or events. Being both a nurse and an art therapist, helping people cope emotionally with a physical ailment is my passion (In-home services available for bed bound or home bound clients).

When you seek change, there is a good reason. You may feel overwhelmed, stressed or have too many days feeling bad. How do I feel better or make a change? This is the place to start, therapy with compassionate, kind and non-judgemental support through this challenging time. Together we will create a path to understand your pain and the path out the other side to feeling good, confident and valued. We will look at patterns of behaviors and thoughts that are not helpful, boundaries that are draining and the patterns that weave your life. This path is challenging, interesting and fun. It is wonderful to feel content and confident.

I work with individuals on their path to feeling whole and balanced through art therapy, mindfulness, and somatic based experiencing. By integrating the intuitive languages of feeling, sensing, and creative expression, I work with healing the nervous system, anxiety, highly sensitive folks, those on the neurodivergent spectrum and chronic pain. These modalities gently guide you from the mind to the present moment, allowing emotions and experiences to be processed and integrated into daily life, promoting holistic well-being of the body, mind, and spirit. Our work together will be warm, genuine and unique to you.

I am an art and talk therapist who specializes in supporting women who are navigating Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (AD/HD), disability, chronic illness, as well as highly empathetic Autistic women. Women who are highly sensitive, experiencing executive functioning challenges, and sensory processing issues work well with my style.

I'm Cassie (she/they), and I would describe myself as a nurturer who strives to create a therapeutic space in which children, adolescents, and adults can feel safe and seen. I am trained in Art Therapy, as well as Play Therapy (yes, online works too!). I believe the capacity to heal is within us already, and the therapeutic relationship can reminds us of our own strength.

I am an Art Therapist passionate in supporting teens 16+ and adults. From a client-directed, strength-based approach, I believe counseling is a collaborative experience. I hold a non-biased space for healing as I support your own therapeutic journey and I utilize mindfulness based practices, transpersonal and creative tools to enhance the process. Through the language of art making, it is my honor to assist in processing difficult emotional states and integrating sustainable and empowering tools to utilize in your life. Your WHOLE self is welcome and valid in the therapeutic space and I recognize your courage in seeking help.

Teens & adults feeling anxious, lost, or in family struggles often crave a safe space to express themselves openly. Therapy offers just that, along with tools to manage emotions, navigate confusing situations, and build confidence. Through therapeutic methods I can help you find clarity about your goals, build healthier relationships, and ultimately reach your full potential. It's incredibly rewarding to witness your growth and self-discovery as you overcome challenges and embrace your unique journey.

Do you find yourself stuck in the same routines and wanting to get out, or returning to unhealthy patterns? Maybe it's time to address your concerns in an open, yet safe environment. I offer a strengths-based, trauma-informed approach, and incorporate the creative lens of art therapy. My work is rooted in a social justice perspective, illuminating the impact of systemic influences on our thoughts, experiences and feelings.

Therapy is a journey to come more completely into your authentic self. It can be difficult to ask for help, yet as humans we all need help especially at difficult times. In my client focused therapy, I strive to create a safe space to explore your inner world. Our current landscape is full of speed and activity, I help my clients to slow down and work with feelings of overwhelm, anxiety, depression and trauma symptoms. My passion is to empower you to experience your innate wellness through conversation, mindfulness, art and body awareness practices.
