Desiree Sanders
Hello, I’m Desiree, a licensed Professional Counselor and Board Certified Art Therapist dedicated to helping individuals harness the transformative power of art to foster personal growth and healing. Through my practice, Whole heART THERAPY, I offer a safe and nurturing space where you can explore your emotions, gain insight, and achieve meaningful change.
My approach to utilizing the art in session to talk and explore challenging experiences and emotions. It can be hard to make sense of complicated emotions and find the words to express them, this is where Art can help this process! Art can offer a way to explore a wide range of emotional and mental challenges. By integrating various art modalities, such as painting, drawing, sculpting, and collage, I encourage clients to express themselves in a non-verbal and symbolic way, unlocking their inner voice and facilitating self-discovery.
