Art therapist in Maryland near me, specializing in anxiety, OCD, sleep disorders, and adult art therapy.

"I had the pleasure of attending a supervision group led by Kristy while working towards my LCPC. It was a wonderful experience. I loved the mixture of art making, clinical consultation and group discussion. Kristy is well organized, responsive and knowledgeable. She provided a supportive and safe environment to learn and explore. I highly recommend for anyone looking to join a fun and informative supervision group!"

"I entered Kristy's group supervision while I was an LGPC. Kristy does an amazing job of providing supervisions that are valuable for both art therapists and counselors. I never considered myself an artist, but with Kristy' guidance, I was able to connect with my own creative strengths. I am now able to build rapport and connect with clients in new creative ways. Additionally, Kristy is extremely knowledgeable as a counselor and has helped me through difficult situations ranging from clinical matters to navigating the bureaucracy of licensing. I highly recommend her group supervisions!"

I feel immense joy in the work I do and believe that therapy, in all its forms, is a deeply personal and transformative journey. I’m committed to a somatic and anti-oppressive approach that honors each individual's unique experience while creating a space of safety, compassion, and empowerment.

I see value in working in multiple roles (whether as a therapist, supervisor, workshop leader, or community volunteer) because it enriches my understanding and keeps me grounded. Being involved in a variety of capacities allows me to stay well-rounded and better serve those I work with. My commitment to joy, authenticity, and healing is at the core of every session, consultation, and interaction I have.

If you’re looking to add someone to your team— whether as a therapist, mentor, supervisor— know that I am here to support you, your family, your practice, and your vision every step of the way.
