I strive to be collaborative, empowering, and strengths-based while cultivating a space of non-judgement, trust, and openness. My goal is for supervisees to feel safe enough to be vulnerable, which strengthens learning, self-exploration, and the delivery of ethical art therapy.
Virtual individual sessions – $140/session: book a meeting to discuss your supervision needs and aspirations. https://dianneshannonarttherapy.noustalk.com/contactme
Virtual group sessions – $80/session: every Thursday from 6:00-8:00 pm CST. 6 spots are available each week. Email me to book one or multiple sessions at a time, weekly, bi-weekly, monthly, or as your need arises.
