Our Purpose

Philadelphia Art Therapy Associates is a diverse group of clinicians striving to build a better world abundant with love, compassion, empathy, and benevolent interdependence. We believe that everyone deserves to be safe, feel well, and find meaning and contentment in this life. Sometimes circumstances conspire to make things difficult for us to get there. We’re here to help.

PhATA was formed because people function and communicate at their highest capacity when tapping into creativity. The therapists at Philadelphia Art Therapy Associates create supportive, trusting relationships using the creative process, art making, and discussion.

We aspire to be a world class therapy practice, to deliver the most outstanding therapy services, and to be renowned by mental health, Art Therapy, and client communities.

“I believe I can change my world”
