Individual Therapy
Art + Creativity
Therapy is a personal journey, and there’s no “one-size-fits-all” approach. We offer a range of options so you can find what works best for you. Some teens may feel more comfortable with talk therapy, while others might prefer creative methods like drawing, painting, clay, or even fire art. We believe healing happens when you feel comfortable, understood, and safe. By offering different therapy options, we give you the freedom to explore what feels right and provide support along the way. Our goal is to make therapy enjoyable and meaningful.
Group Therapy
Art It Out offers year-round group therapy for children to support social-emotional growth, friendship skills, emotional regulation, and more. With over 100 weekly groups, we carefully place each client based on their individual goals and group fit.
Our groups serve children experiencing anxiety, impulsivity, social challenges, or difficulty managing big emotions. Goals addressed may include making and keeping friends, managing frustration, improving communication, handling teasing, and practicing flexibility and cooperation.
Each 50-minute group session consists of an average of 6 group members led by a therapist and a graduate intern. This allows for highly individualized support in the group environment. Group includes engaging, multi-sensory activities and ends with a brief therapist-led summary for caregivers. Therapists also offer optional check-ins mid-semester, at the end of, or as needed, to discuss your child’s progress.
We require an intake for new clients to ensure thoughtful group placement. Since 2009, we’ve been a leader in group therapy, known for creative interventions and intentional care.
