Florida Art Therapy Services, LLC is a private practice located in Fort Myers, Florida, specializing in Creative Individual & Group Counseling, Consultations, Clinical Supervision, and Professional Development for Clinicians. We believe that healing is best achieved through collaboration with the community and offer quarterly free speaker/workshops related to mental health and wellness. Our approach to therapy is grounded in the work of Donald Winnicott, a renowned psychoanalyst and pediatrician, emphasizing the creation of a holding environment where clients can establish a safe and trusting relationship with themselves, others, and the world.

Our art studios and play space serve as these holding environments, providing clients of all ages and abilities with stimulating materials to express themselves in safe and appropriate ways. We understand that not everyone can verbalize their experiences, so we offer various expressive methods such as visual arts, movement, music, play, and narrative techniques. Our therapists create a supportive and nonjudgmental environment, allowing clients to explore and process their emotions, thoughts, and experiences.

The images and stories created in therapy become a personal holding environment, enabling clients to navigate their inner world with mastery and control. Contact us today to learn more about our services and schedule an appointment
