Christina Marrero
Art Therapist - ATR, LPC
I enjoy working with kids to help them find their strengths, regain hope, and expand their imagination. I use an integrative approach which includes art-making processes, child-centered relationship building, and trauma informed presence. I have a heart for outsiders, quirky kids, and unique personalities.As an art therapist, I am able to appreciate both “works in progress” and “finished products.” Understanding and cultivating children’s unique selves gives them a solid foundation from which they can engage in life fully. Art-making provides a safe place for expression of their most difficult experiences.I bring to my practice an excitement for each new relationship, a warm and calming presence, sense of humor, eagerness to receive my clients’ stories, and purposeful patience. I maintain a global, conscious perspective with an investment in supporting the integrity of each individual/family that comes to my office.
