Spotted Rabbit Creative Arts Therapy
Licensed Creative Arts Therapist - LCAT
No matter what brings you to therapy figuring out how to “be happy” is probably somewhere on the list, whether you believe it is a destination itself or found along the way. We all want to love, be loved, do something meaningful, and have purpose in our lives, yet all too often prior relationships and life experiences have left us with coping skills that are unhealthy, ineffective or just downright baffling. Spotted Rabbit therapists are experienced in working with adults who have a history of childhood emotional abuse and/or neglect, especially those who are neurodivergent (ADHD, autism, OCD) and/or LGBTQ+. Those we work with often find that they have difficulty with relationships, struggle to regulate their emotions, and wish they were in more control of their lives. Several of our therapists are LGBTQIA+ and we use a neurodivergent affirming approach.
Spotted Rabbit’s philosophy is built on long-term relief of your suffering. Through the processing of past experiences we help clients make sense of their current behaviors, thoughts, and emotions, enabling them to be more effective in their relationships with others and lead more meaningful lives. Unfortunately, we cannot make the difficult emotions go away, but by using art therapy approaches and acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) we can develop effective strategies to lessen the intensity and frequency of these experiences while increasing satisfaction in other areas of your life. We are committed to a values-based approach and believe strongly that developing meaning and purpose in your life is a necessity for overall well-being.
Unlike other providers, we work in an art studio and encourage clients to use art making within session. Our space is cozy and colorful and feels more like home than a medical practice. We also gladly offer telehealth appointments for folks residing in NYS.
We are so excited that you are taking the first step toward emotional wellness! We hope you reach out to get to know more about how we might help.
