Services

Halligan Creative Arts Therapy uses a client-centered approach to treatment. We offer in person and online services using Zoom.  The COVID-19 Pandemic changed how we access services, especially mental health care. We are happy to accommodate the growing need for tele-health. Art Therapy can be done virtually! Each client will work on individualized goals that help them improve their mental health and overall well-being. Choice and variety of art activities will be offered in sessions. No previous art experience is necessary.
Sessions are $100 per hour session. Sliding scale may be considered on a limited basis.

Groups are designed with client goals and needs in mind. Groups may cover a variety of topics and will focus on how address therapeutic goals as well as experience art activities that are interesting, enriching and engaging for participants. Art Therapy groups can focus on a wide variety of artistic projects, such as collage, creative journaling, expressive painting, fabric arts, fairy houses, mask-making, tile painting, and much more. Groups are $30/per person. Workshops can also be offered to a specific population such as clients struggling with anxiety, body image, communication, eating disorders, at-risk teens, traumatic brain injury, developmental delays, etc. Pricing for small groups begins at $150. Groups/workshops may be ongoing for one-time events. Please call to discuss group options.

Supervision is offered for therapists who are seeking support and discussion of clinical issues in practice. Supervision is also available for therapists who are seeking New York state licensure. (On a limited basis) 

Art Therapy training for staff members can be an excellent team building activity, help with stress reduction/self-care, and teach staff members how to be more creative in their work.

We offer two types of staff training that can be tailored to your needs:

1) Creative Interventions for Mental Health Professionals: In this training, you will learn how to incorporate art-making into your counseling sessions with clients. The training includes learning creative/artistic strategies for client/group engagement, hands-on art activities that promote self-expression, insight, and problem solving, as well as a resource packet for further learning.

2) Art Expressions for Self-Care: In this training you will get to learn creative strategies to promote self-expression and self-understanding, get to play with art materials and explore hands-on activities, learn how to utilize art as a self-care strategy and have fun!

Please contact me to discuss specific content and pricing. Staff Training/Workshop fees begin at $250.

*Staff trainings are not to train staff to be Art Therapists but how to utilize more creative experiences in their work.
