About Anya
I began teaching when I started showing my art in galleries right after I graduated with my Fine Arts Degree in 1996. Along with doing art shows came invitations for teaching experiences in various local galleries, studies, and schools in Boulder. I loved teaching art and started teaching at a adolescent therapy center where I discovered that art experiences could be so much more than a traditional art class. I fell in love with using the creative process to help people with healing and personal growth and pursued my Masters Degree in Transpersonal Psychology and Art Therapy at Naropa University in Boulder. I have been doing art therapy in private practice and in different hospitals and therapy centers since 2004 and founded the Whole HeARTs Family Center in 2011.
I am a lifelong Artist, an Art Therapist, a Licensed Professional Counselor and a former Art Teacher. I am PASSIONATE about helping people open up to their own unique creative processes have been involved in teaching art and art therapy for over 20 years.
To me it is important to help people in the best way that I can and I combine my education, experience and skills to help people learn and grow in a way that is helpful for them. Some clients prefer to paint for the entire session, others prefer to paint and talk, and some want creative coaching or counseling. We can explore whatever feels best in our time together.

I love working with new students and clients who are ready to engage in the creative and self-discovery process!
I am a licensed professional counselor, art therapist and former art teacher and I offer creative Art Therapy sessions for children and adults at my studio, the Whole HeARTs Family Center. If you are ready for more than a traditional art class, and are looking for personal growth and creative healing, please keep reading!
At Whole HeARTs Family Center, I focus on utilizing the healing power of the creative arts to help deepen our connection to our authentic self, to others and to the way we relate in the world. Imagery is the first language of the brain and affects us on a subconscious level, and there is often a deeper psychological shift that happens when children and adults create images and then process and explore the meaning. By creating art with intention, not only do we open ourselves up to an enriching, fun and artistic experience, the creative process can also help us make very positive and meaningful shifts in our lives.
I have worked with students and clients as young as 3 years old up to 86 year olds! I believe that art is for people of all ages and abilities.
I have a special gift in helping kids (and adults too) who have a challenging time expressing their feelings verbally, to express themselves through through the creative process. I have worked with people with senory processing disorder, autism, aspergers, anxiety and depression as wells as people who want some help expressing themselves in a deeper more meaningful way. I also specialize in using the creative process for emotional and physical healing and often combine using guided visualization and art making with people who have health issues and chronic illness.

Details
I offer a free 10 - 15 minute phone consultation to make sure that we will be a good fit for each other. If we determine that we would like to set up a session, I offer the first session at half off my regular rate so that we can try a session out at a reduced rate.
My rates for all of my services - Art Therapy, counseling, coaching and creative experientials are the same so that way we can be flexible with what is needed during every session.
I offer a sliding scale depending on the time of day we meet. My after school and evening times get very busy and book fast, so I offer a reduced rate to come before 3:00. My rate for sessions before 3:00pm is $120 per hour and sessions after 3:00pm are $150. If people choose to buy a pre-paid package of 4 sessions (to be used before 3:00) the rate is $450 which brings the sessions down to $112 each.
I have a range of canvas sizes - from 4x4 to 16x20, acrylic paper and watercolor paper, a broad range of paints and a large variety of almost every art materials imaginable that clients are welcome to use. The cost of most materials is covered in the session fee.
