Hi- I'm Kristen, Owner and Licensed Therapist at Pittsburgh Art Therapy Studio. By building an empathetic and collaborative therapeutic relationship, my hope is that we can creatively explore your experiences and their impacts in a way that is beneficial and tailored specifically for you. In taking those steps there is a beautiful opportunity to truly learn about yourself. I will step into the space of fostering greater self-awareness with you in a curious, expressive, and non-judgmental way. I hope to walk beside you on your journey towards self-discovery and guide you towards feeling empowered. I use creative arts therapy and traditional counseling techniques that focus on safety within the therapy relationship and space for processing your thoughts, feelings, and experiences. I with folks of various needs and backgrounds but feel passionate about working on women's/femme-identifying issues as well as burn out with healthcare professionals. If you are looking to continue to explore yourself and your experiences through the use of creative channels please visit the Pittsburgh Art Therapy Studio website and/or contact office to get started!
