As an Art Therapist, Ruann offers various creative mediums and sensory experiences to facilitate a space where clients can regulate, express, and release difficult emotions. Her approach is both person-centered and psychodynamic, meaning she works with clients to understand how their past connects to their present experiences. Afterward, clients use art and to work through those experiences creatively so they can reclaim their power, find confidence, and live joyfully.
Ruann approaches therapy through an intersectional framework and considers all parts of the individual—including mental, emotional, spiritual, and social. Her treatment validates personal experiences and intersections of identity, which are integral to the process of creative expression.
Ruann's primary focus is developing a strong relationship with each client and understanding their needs. By offering a safe environment for creative expression, clients gain further insight and understanding of themselves.
