Philosophy

“I believe that creating art serves as a communication between our inner and outer worlds. It is a natural form of expression that can bring about healing and recovery. I am deeply committed to helping people find meaning and purpose in their lives and to help overcome feelings of emptiness and hopelessness. I work to help my clients discover their strengths and strive to create a nurturing environment that fosters hope and resilience. All those who enter our doors are met with love and empathy. You are welcome here.”

“Every individual is the creator of his or her own existence, and people are free to make whatever they wish. All creations have meaning.” 

–Dr. Bruce Moon
