Laura Dobbs - LPC, ATR

I am a licensed Professional Counselor and a Registered Art Therapist trained in a variety of expressive therapy techniques; however, I predominantly use art as a form of expression during sessions. I work with all ages and offer a combination of verbal therapy and art therapy to assist with acceptance and healing. Art therapy can benefit anyone willing to take a risk in exploring themselves and their emotions.

Art-making can help bridge the gap between feelings for which there are no words. Having artistic talent or even enjoying making art is not a requirement. I provide specialized art techniques to assist my clients with accessing the deeper rooted emotions just below your level of awareness.

I am compassionate, authentic, and I strive to create a safe environment for my clients to explore and express underlying issues, find coping strategies, and facilitate healing. Together, we can explore how artwork can connect those in need of guidance to their lesser-known emotions.
