Playful Pigment Psychotherapy
Art & Talk Therapy For Teens And Adults
New York & Connecticut / Online
You are often told that you are “too sensitive”.
You feel like nothing you do is good enough.
You feel ashamed of your habits.
You are frequently overwhelmed by your responsibilities.
You want change but…
You have no idea where to start.
Talking about it feels overwhelming.
You are out of ways to problem solve on your own.
Introducing
Art Psychotherapy
Art psychotherapy (aka Art Therapy) is a therapeutic approach that uses art, the creative process, and the resulting artwork to promote self-expression, curiosity, playfulness, growth, and insight while lowering defenses; especially around navigating challenging life blocks.
You do not have to be an artist or have previous creative experience to benefit from art psychotherapy. If you are someone who struggles to verbalize or add language to your internal emotional world, art psychotherapy may be a great fit for you. I also offer talk therapy and together we can find what approach/balance works best for you.
Your pain has a voice - let’s listen.
Experience relief through talking / therapeutic art making

Hi, I’m Rumi.
Hello! I'm Rumi (previously known as Nina). Welcome to Playful Pigment Psychotherapy, a virtual psychotherapy practice serving adults and teens in the states of New York and Connecticut.
I aim to connect/reconnect people to their creative selves, provide support with navigating life challenges, and share how therapeutic art-making can be used as a tool to promote and maintain well-being. I offer both Art therapy and talk therapy.
