About

Empowering Healing, Growth, and Creativity

Are you seeking a compassionate and creative approach to personal growth and well-being? Whole heART THERAPY can offer you a place and space to evolve and grow. I'm Desiree Sanders, a Licensed Professional Counselor and Board Certified Art Therapist. I strive to help you navigate life's challenges, uncover your inner strengths, and find holistic healing through the transformative power of traditional talk therapy, therapeutic art making, and art therapy. Why Choose Counseling and Art Therapy? At Whole heART THERAPY, I believe in the therapeutic qualities of engaging in art in therapy. Art allows an alternative and more relaxed way of expressing one's self. Our sessions provide a unique opportunity to express yourself in ways that words alone may not capture. Through the blend of traditional counseling techniques and artistic exploration, we'll work collaboratively to foster insights, promote emotional release, and ignite personal growth. The act of engaging in art can be therapeutic, Art Therapy is a more intentional use of art materials and creating imagery with dialogue about the process and imagery can enhance the therapeutic process. What Sets Me Apart? Artistic Expression/Exploration: Personal exploration through engaging in the creative process. I specialize in integrating art therapy techniques into our sessions, creating a safe space for you to express yourself visually and nonverbally. I found that introducing art into sessions helps dissipate the potential monotony ad stagnation that can happen in traditional talk therapy. Holistic Well-Being: I view well-being as a holistic endeavor, addressing your mind, body, spirit connection to allow healing to manifest in all aspects of your being. Client-Centered Approach: Your journey is unique. I tailor our therapeutic process to align with your needs, preferences, and goals. I strive to support your healing journey by offering groups and workshops to alternative modalities to help you heal and evolve in your mind, body, and spirit.
