Michelle Kruz, MS. MEd. TLLP. ATR.
Psychotherapist and Register Art Therapist

As a registered art therapist and mental health clinician with a specialization in clinical behavioral analysis, I offer an integrative, person-centered approach that honors your individual needs and lived experience. I believe in the healing power of creativity, the resilience of the human mind, and our shared capacity to shift patterns that no longer serve us.
​
In my work, art becomes more than expression, it becomes a tool for self-awareness, emotional processing, and transformation. Whether you're navigating stress, life transitions, or behavioral challenges, I create a warm, judgment-free space where you can explore, reflect, and reconnect with your inner world.
​
You don’t need to be an artist. There’s no “right” or “wrong” way to create. Art therapy is about the process, not the product, and your creative journey will be as unique as you are.
​
In my work, I gather what heals:

• Art Therapy for Emotional Expression & Insight

• Clinical Behavioral Analysis

• Person-Centered & Strength-Based Care

• Mental Health Support for Life Transitions & Stress

• Emotional Regulation & Coping Skills Development

• Creative Expression for Conflict Resolution & Self-Awareness

• Trauma-Informed, Compassionate Listening

• Safe Space for Growth, Healing & Exploration

​
Your Investment:
I accept Blue Cross Blue Shield and Blue Care Network for therapy services.
Private pay is also available at $150 for a 60-minute 1:1 session.
​
My approach to care and holding space is simple:
I meet each client with openness, respect, and deep care—trusting the process of creativity to illuminate insight, growth, and healing. Therapy is a shared journey, and I’m honored to walk alongside you as you create new ways of being, thinking, and feeling.
