Are you a person who has had some positive experiences in talk therapy but can’t seem to convince your partner or other family member to try therapy? Sometimes it’s because they don’t see the point of talking with a stranger, other times it is because they are not very good at talking about themselves or their feelings. I recommend Art Therapy for everyone, but it can often be helpful for people who don’t like the idea of talk therapy or haven’t found it helpful. Or even if they feel there are things they just can’t articulate. Art Therapy is a creative, interactive type of therapy where with guidance from the Art Therapist, you are able to access, express, and process complex emotions. It is safe and effective and fun.

Art therapy is very helpful with grief and depression as well as ADHD (helps with concentration and focus), and anxiety.  Teens and college students find it gives them inspiration and helps them to creatively work through their emotions. Studies show it is helpful for a wide range of issues for all ages.

In the past, I would have cases that I felt would greatly benefit from a combined approach of art therapy and psychotherapy. I would search to find independent Art Therapists to refer people to, but they are a rare find here in New Jersey. When I opened Holistic Health Counseling Center, it was a goal to find a good Art Therapist to invite to join our Staff.

I am very pleased to say that I not only found a great Art Therapist, but I found one who is experienced as a licensed professional counselor and Art Therapist. Lauren Fallat, LPC ATR-BC will be joining me in June. The good news is that it is possible to book an appointment with her now for June. If you or a family member are in need of therapy sooner, I will be happy to provide psychotherapy until your first appointment with Lauren, who can do both psychotherapy and Art therapy with you.
