My name is Elise Roche, and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and Board Certified Art Therapist (ATR-BC). I always knew I wanted to do something to help others and bring people together, and found that art therapy was a perfect way to do so. I started my career doing community mental health, where I partnered with a local high school to provide trauma-informed therapy for students and clinical trainings for the staff. I then went on to develop and implement a clinical art therapy program with family workshops at an Adolescent Residential Treatment Center. I have now been in the private practice world for a few years, and I have seen that all of these roles reiterated the same message- adolescence is HARD . It is when our feelings are their biggest, impulsivity it's strongest and self-esteem the lowest. It's exciting and excruciating and messy - so let me help you make it good mess.
