It is better, together.

The winter season can be tough. The cold, dark, and feelings of loneliness in a crowd can seem too much to bear. ❄️

But, you are not alone! 🤲

This time of year, we need to reach out to one another. A smile, holding the door, or saying hello as you move through your day are all opportunities to shine a light!🌟

I am here too, holding you all in my heart. 💖

✨️ Wishing you the best this holiday weekend.✨️

May your heart and mind be at peace. ☮️
May the hearts and minds of those you love and those you are in conflict with be at peace. ☮️

May you step into your own life with love, compassion, and authenticity. May you hold boundaries that keep you safe and empowered. Living life without regrets comes from this place of self-acceptance and courage. ❤️

All the best, Katie

✨️On November 12th I will be offering a teen therapeutic art workshop: Big Feelings, Small Art. This is part of the teen open studio art therapy series this fall. Teen Open Studio offers a unique blend of art exploration and self-discovery in a relaxed, supportive environment for teens 13-17 years. Led by a licensed professional counselor and registered art therapist, these sessions provide therapeutic benefits to participants as they express themselves through creativity, build skills of objective observation, mindfulness, and self-regulation.

✨️ In Big Feelings, Small Art, we use the art form of playing card collage to create a series of emotions cards, understanding the essential features of the emotions that impact us the most.

Register on my website (see link in bio). Only $55!

I'm back! Well, I have been here, busy with my clinical practice, but taking a break from socials and teaching. This picture cracks me up. I tried 30 times to get the perfect pom-pom moment but finally gave up. This picture captures the energy of the moment and the decision to spend my time in better ways, like getting fall classes going again!

Starting October 1st I will be offering a Teen Open Studio Art Therapy class for teens ages 13-17. I am so stoked to share this format with teens to support building their skills for life. Check out my website for full info.

Likewise, Adult Open Studio Art Therapy classes begin the week after. These fill up so be sure to register.

I just wanted to pop on and say hello. I hope you, too, decide on better things for your day than trying to get the perfect shot. 😜 Hope to see you around! And remember, when in doubt, make art. You already have the answer within. 💖 Katie 💖
