I am a New York State Licensed and Board Certified Arts Therapist with an educational
background in fine art and a specialization in textiles and illustration. I obtained my Masters of
Science in Creative Arts Therapy in 2020 from Nazareth College. I hold the idea that our
experiences bring health, happiness, love and purpose with the inevitability that we will have
difficulty coping with hardships somewhere in our lives. I strive to provide a creative space
where you are seen and heard. I will ask questions to clarify and embrace transparency in the
work we do together. I navigate with you, and understand I will not shy away if we get stuck. I
stay with you, while helping you to identify the coping strategies to move through your
struggles. I explore with you, the person you are and where you are in your journey and aim to
bring you a sense of re-establishing hope, choice, safety, self care and meaning to your life.
I work to help alleviate stress and to combat anxieties incorporating a variety of modalities
including, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), trauma
focused, person centered and existential approaches. I help to explore how to sit with
uncomfortable feelings to promote insight and gentleness to move through grief and loss. My
professional experiences include providing individual therapy services and therapeutic group
work with teens and adults
Along with artmaking a few of Caitlin’s favorite things are traveling, the outdoors, renaissance
festivals (in costume), hydroponics, sewing and being with family and friends.
