Art therapy is used to access complex thoughts and feelings, and externalize them through self-expression using metaphor. The process is different from an art lesson in that it is rooted in the knowledge of psychological theories, human development, and counseling techniques. Lyndsay is licensed as an art therapist by the Art Therapy Credentials Board, and as such is trained in using the arts (drawing, painting, collage, fiber arts, journaling, photography, poetry, sculpture, etc) to aid her clients in identifying and representing their thoughts and feelings through art-making. Lyndsay will tailor a unique experience for each client, choosing materials and interventions best suited to their needs.
