Hello, I am Dion Smotherman. Are you discovering that your plans for making tomorrow better seem to fade shortly after your day get going? Maybe you feel your creativity and enthusiasm have taken a vacation. Have you noticed your relationships are becoming harder to maintain and you long for the return of your creative self. I enjoy working with families, couples, young adults and adolescents. I specialize in working with you through marital conflict, grief, loss. anxiety, depression and trauma. There are a few art materials you will need to purchase. I will provide a list. A beginning investment of $50 of supplies should work fine. Let’s creatively work together towards making positive changes using Art Therapy and CBT.
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
In your first session we will spend time on *Discovering key strengths and difficulties. * Introducing you to the Art Therapy process * Identifying your hopes and dreams * Review some of your historical information. You should be able to take away that you have been heard and we have a foundational level of understanding.
What treatment methods and tools do you utilize?
I am Licensed MFT with extensive experience using Art Therapy. I also have a Doctorate in Biblical Counseling and working with people seeking a Christian perspective in navigating their life issues.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
Creativity working with clients to discover their best self. Additionally, I am also an artist and musician. I understand the value of creative process.
