When I ask someone to tell me what it’s like inside their head I always get something different.
Explosions of color, bold line work, expressive brushstrokes and more.

Some people can state the answer: “my head is overwhelmed,” “my head is in a state of stress,” “my brain feels dysregulated,” “there’s just so much going on, there’s so much that I think about.”

But for many, words escape us and it’s difficult to describe until given a different outlet. One that expresses all of those words and thoughts and feelings without writing a single letter. It can be through dance or movement, music, art or maybe all of these options together.

This is why we love . Stay tuned for some exciting events next week for aka creative arts therapies week.

Did you know we offer services in NY, NJ, FL and PA?
In NJ we have 3 locations (Manalapan, Ocean and Princeton). We work with children as young as 3 and go the entire lifespan offering both creative and traditional therapy.
We offer both virtual and in person options to work with your scheduling needs.
Some clients prefer one specific type of therapy while many prefer a combination. We also offer a wide variety of therapy groups, usually in the summer, like Paint it Out Boxing, LEAP leadership training for girls, yoga therapy groups and more! In addition to typical therapy options we also offer parental counseling services. This is for parents struggling with how to best parent their children. We offer tips, strategies and workable solutions.

You can learn about each of our incredible therapists or any of the services we offer on our website (www.paintthestarsarttherapy.com) and make sure to follow us on social media for the latest offerings and updates.

I’m also happy to personally answer any questions you may have—-so, let’s chat!

Have you ever watched someone be confronted with one of their worst fears? Even if you don’t understand the fear, watching a person freeze in an almost paralyzing way or panic due to that fear—it’s quite emotional and difficult to be present for.

OCD is one of the most debilitating anxiety related disorders. Like a drug, the more you use it—the more you give into it, the more you allow it to have control—-the worse everything gets.

Treating OCD requires time and patience by ALL involved, especially the family of someone struggling with OCD. We all hope for and want a quick fix but with OCD it’s not about that. It’s about taking the time to understand the urges and the intrusive thoughts. It’s about knowing that you cannot rationalize the compulsive and repetitive behaviors.

This canvas represents OCD for one young lady. It’s a work in progress but the tension you see already forming is quite real.

This. Woman’s. Work.


It’s so much more than what you see.
It’s more than her education and how she was raised.
It’s more than the events that she lived through which molded her into the person she is.
It’s more than the family she birthed, chose and or raised.
It’s more than the house she keeps clean and the food she cooks.
It’s more than her friendships and relationships that she holds so dear.
It’s more than her career.
It’s more than the business that she grew from the ground up.
It’s more than the dedication that she puts into everything she does.
It’s more than the pressure she feels knowing all of these delicate glass balls that she is juggling can fall at any time.

It’s so much more…

What do we hear most from our ADHD and also ASD families?
“We are struggling with Difficulty staying focused on or willingness to do any non preferred activities!”
And those non preferred activities can be a lot…

😞Different subjects at school
😞Homework
😞Going to family functions
😞Going to appointments
😞Daily living activities
😞Having to stop playing or doing a preferred activity

While you may not ALWAYS be able to offer incentives, it’s a great idea to offer them when you can.

Taking brain breaks are always helpful at school or during homework.

And if you can manage, making things fun is a win-win for all!

Today is and this is one of our favorite populations to work with. They are real and raw and although some may take time to trust you and open up, in the end they are always powerful clients with deep and meaningful thoughts, struggles and personalities.

Teens are going through many transitions typically at a time when their emotions (and hormones) are taking them on a rollercoaster ride. They often need the outlet of therapy but they don’t always ask for it or some don’t recognize if and when they need it. They will confide in friends before anyone else and they are the harshest critics of themselves.

If you love or know a teen, the best thing you can do is offer them therapy, don’t push, just allow them to have options. The worst case scenario is they say no thanks but the best case scenario is the find a safe space where they can open up and feel better.

If you are a struggling teen please know help is out there and yes therapy does work. It just takes a text, a call, an email… you’ve got this
