Testimonials
"I am a 36-year-old female with CPTSD. I really struggle with being able to release my emotions from my physical body and mind. I never even thought for a second that Art Therapy could be an option for me at all!! I knew I loved playing with art materials and am drawn to more tactile emotional regulation strategies. I struggle with a very negative view of myself and my abilities especially when it comes to art and creativity tasks. This was all until I met the AMAZING Shylie! Shylie is such a calm and gentle soul. At the end of each session, I would always leave feeling so amazed that Shylie was able to connect to my inner self and emotional struggles/pain/needs and wants. I have never had this experience with any other therapy before and I have been trying different therapies for more than ten years. I can’t speak highly enough of Shylie and the amazing ability she has and how much help she has been to me. Art Therapy with Shylie has definitely been life changing! The only thing I wish is that I had connected with Shylie earlier in my recovery."

"From the moment I walked in Shylie made me feel so comfortable and at ease. I did not really know what to expect but loved the whole process. Shylie took time to ground me into the space. Her knowledge is fantastic and she explains things so well. I loved the guided art process too and the whole mind and body connection throughout it all. A lovely holistic approach. Highly recommend!"

"Shylie is warm, kind and gentle with an abundance of knowledge that allowed me to understand my feelings and emotions and work through them. Among some talk therapy we also used art to express what was happening for me further. Getting crafty was so grounding and with Shylie's gentle guidance I felt at ease. 100% recommend seeing Shylie, I felt so heard and supported during my session."
