Hello, my name is Hailey! I am a Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying) specializing in Art Therapy (DTATI).
I graduated from the Toronto Art Therapy Institute and received a Diploma in Art Therapy. In 2023 I wrote a Thesis, An Autoethnographic Research Study of an Art Therapist: A Self-Reflective Art Practice as the final step to complete my Diploma in Art Therapy. This study focuses on the benefits of a Student Art Therapist engaging in a self-reflective practice after sessions with clients in a practicum setting. Through this I have become more self-aware and passionate about the benefits of using the creative process & journaling as a form of connecting with the self.
Self-expression can be explored through a combination of art-making, journaling, self-reflection and talking. Whether you are an artist, create art as a hobby or are completely new to art making - I can hold space and witness you on your journey.
I have a passion for creating art and helping others, so I was driven to create my own virtual space to support individuals in finding their creative flow.
I currently offer virtual sessions to adults (18+) across Ontario, Canada using the Jane App.
