This Saturday I’ll have a booth at the Greenburgh Artists and Crafters Market from 11a-4p at Presser Park in Hartsdale! The cool thing about this market is that you actually get to make art at each booth too!

I’ll be selling decoupaged and hand-painted pieces (mainly trinket bowls that I handmade) while also providing info about some exciting new groups, a new website, and more!

Come by to see me on Saturday and meet our Growth Mindset mascot for the day, Yeti! 💐

This man’s content is so wholesome and lovely, and a powerful example of re-parenting. If his words are trigging to you, and you want to believe what he’s saying but just can’t, give me a call or shoot me an email. We can start the healing together.

Absolutely fantastic metaphor! 🪾🌳

Trees are incredibly symbolic in art therapy work. Their branches are what connect them to the world around them- like our arms and our hands. The “grounding” we do in therapy is the roots- reconnecting ourselves to the stability of the earth.

The extra tricky part is being patient with the roots- nurturing what you can’t see, in order to have the firm foundation for the branches.

Guerrilla art forever!

The latest in a series of politically inflected sculptures to appear on the National Mall in Washington, D.C., is a giant golden toilet that can now be found near the Lincoln Memorial.

Its title, as its plaque states, is A Throne Fit for a King, and its makers is the Secret Handshake, the same group of anonymous artists that also produced "Best Friends Forever", a sculpture that featured a beaming Donald Trump and the convicted s*x offender Jeffrey Epstein.

“With so much horror happening on a daily basis, it’s easy to forget what this President has actually accomplished. Like remodeling The Lincoln Bathroom,” the Secret Handshake told ARTnews in an email.

It was a crazy long day, but once again GOOD for Girls, Inc. crushed it with their yearly career expo! In addition to having a booth at the career fair, I hosted 3 art therapy workshops with 3 incredibly impressive art therapy interns from NYU. They collaborated so well and really connected with the kids.

Our quilt still has some finishing touches needed, but soon will be hanging in GOOD for Girls HQ!
