Jamie Adges, LCAT, RDTI am a Licensed Creative Arts Therapist, Registered Drama Therapist, Certified Yoga Teacher, and Reiki Practitioner, with a wide range of experience including early childhood, adolescents, autism spectrum disorder and disabilities, adult mental health, and geriatrics. I have worked with groups and individuals in settings including schools, hospitals, nursing homes, substance abuse treatment centers, and outpatient clinics.
BackgroundI received my Masters in Drama Therapy at the University of Roehampton in London in 2016 and am currently based in New York City. I am a HCPC Registered Arts Therapist and Drama Therapist in the United Kingdom, and a Licensed Creative Arts Therapist in New York State (LCAT).
My background is in both theatre and psychology, and through my own personal journey, and through witnessing the experience of others, I have realized the healing effects of creative expression when dealing with issues such as anxiety, depression, grief and loss, trauma, psychosis, and with the general demands of everyday life. ApproachSun and Moon represent opposing forces within us- light and dark, good and bad, feminine and masculine. Sun and Moon Creative Therapy invites us to embrace the complexity and duality of the human spirit. find peace and acceptance, integrate and harmonize all parts of ourselves.
I offer a safe and contained space where we will be using creative arts therapy tools and traditional psychotherapy to connect with both body and mind, and work through issues and challenges we may be facing in our lives to move towards a place of self acceptance and healing. I believe in a client-led, humanistic approach and my role is to be a guide and support on each person’s unique journey, catering sessions to meet the individual needs and goals of every person. People of all backgrounds and experiences are welcome and can benefit from this approach. |
