Provider Description
I am an artist and Clinical Marriage and Family ​Therapist licensed in OH and CT (NY licensure ​pending). I have eyes trained to find beauty in all ​the places where hope feels lost. My undergraduate degree is in studio art, and I ​love to incorporate expressive interventions with ​my clients to process what is coming up. I have ​personally experienced the healing power of art ​in the unearthing of trauma, and I encourage ​others to dig into themselves in that same ​vulnerable way. Some experiences defy what we ​can express through constructed language. I support those who are coping with the wide-​ranging impact of trauma on their lives, including ​a specialization in deconstructing religious/cultic ​experiences, medical, and sexual traumas. A great many of us have been harmed by the way our various faith bodies have handled issues surrounding the LGBTQ+ community, regardless of religious background. The impact of that trauma, interwoven throughout your development and imprinted into your thinking, is only just beginning to be understood in the therapy world and is not talked about enough. Family estrangement, relational wounds, and ​early attachment ruptures are other areas in ​which I have a great deal of experience. I work ​from a postmodern, systemic approach, ​interweaving modalities from narrative therapy, ​EMDR, and expressive interventions such as sand ​tray and visual arts. I am certified through Fluence to provide Ketamine Assisted ​Psychotherapy and I’m partnered with Journey Clinical to be able to offer it to those for whom it ​is clinically indicated. I’m excited that you took this first step, and I’m ​eager to push further with gentle curiosity. Let’s ​get you back into role of creating your narrative, ​and aligned with who you truly are inside. Even if you’re not yet sure who that is! Listed provider: Sharla Cook. Credentials: AMFT.
