Services Offered

Sensorimotor Art Therapy

Sarah provides a non-judgmental environment where people’s stories are treated with respect and care.

Trauma-informed and attachment theories influence her approach, and she sees the relationship as crucial to the therapeutic process. 

Taking a client-centred approach, Sarah particularly draws on:

  • Mindfulness-based psychotherapies
  • Hakomi
  • Internal Family Systems 
  • Sensorimotor Art Therapy
  • Narrative Therapy 
  • Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT)

Sensorimotor Art Therapy is somatic psychotherapy based on a bottom-up approach. The term sensorimotor refers to the role of sensory input and movement.

Sensorimotor processing is helpful in regulating emotion and arousal, fostering growth, and facilitating expansion after complex trauma. 

The activities bring you into closer contact with your body-its feelings, its movements, its signals, and your inherent healing ability. 

Activities can help you explore your identity, feel less stuck, and strengthen your capacity to cope with big emotions.

Individual Sessions

Sensorimotor art therapy sessions will last 1.5 hours to allow time for your process, with each session tailored to your healing intention and therapeutic needs.

A mindfulness practice will begin the session to help clarify your intention. A creative art process will follow this and end with time for harvesting and integrating the results.

Art mediums may include:

  • Oil 
  • Chalk pastels
  • Paint
  • Clay
    Glitter
  • Feathers
  • Plasticine
  • Pieces of nature
  • Buttons
  • Everything you can use for art
Workshops

Sarah offers workshops for groups of 4 to 5 people. She welcomes current clients and the broader community. 

For first time attendees, Sarah will arrange a phone call to understand how the workshop fits into your current life stage.

Art skills are not required. Wear loose-fitting clothes you don't mind getting messy.
