A creative space for art therapy ideas, gentle insights, and reflections from a child and adult therapist

Looking for easy-to-use ideas to support your creative practice or therapy sessions? Here, you’ll find practical tools, art-based prompts, and reflections rooted in my work with children, teens, and adults navigating OCD, anxiety, neurodivergence, identity exploration, and more.

Whether you’re a fellow therapist, a parent, or simply someone drawn to expressive healing, I hope you find something here that resonates — or sparks a moment of calm, clarity, or curiosity.
