Clinical Focus Areas
We provide supportive solutions for:
-
Neurodevelopmental Variances
-
Neurocognitive Variances
-
Pediatric Medical Complexities
-
Grief and Loss in the Care Partner Relationship
-
Chronic or Terminal Medical Illness Impacting Neurocognitive Wellness that is Managed by a Care Partner
In providing care to these populations we are informed to support concurrent symptoms of anxiety, certain OCD related variances, adjustment variances, impulse control variances, executive functioning variances, vision loss, blindness, certain eating variances, and psychosomatic ailments.
We do require coordinated care with a speciality-skilled mental health clinician in these areas based off of our assessment of the severity of symptoms upon intake, and as treatment progresses. We also request that clients share a letter of diagnosis and most recent neuropsychological evaluation when completing our intake forms. Care partners are required to partake in bi-weekly or monthly sessions, depending upon the level of care being provided.

Advocacy
The Patient Palette maintains relationships with organizations that advocate for the well-being and mental health of individuals in our community. We always welcome hearing how we can better meet our community's needs, as well as look forward to partnering with other practices and businesses that share similar values for community wellness.
Theoretical values
We are trained in understanding human development across the lifespan. We value an integrated approach to care that embodies elements of Humanistic, Psychodynamic, Behavioral, and Biological theories of therapy. We believe in holding a sincerely approachable space, that is both empathetic and imaginative. We offer a 20-minute First Client greeting call to make sure that you find us the right fit for your needs, and vice versa, at no cost. We believe each client should have a realistic expectation about what we can offer them through the process of Creative Arts Therapy.
