Nadia J.

Business Owner

Nadia received her Masters in Art Therapy from Pratt Institute and her post-​masters certificate in Child and Family Therapy from NYU. Her integrated use of artmaking, talk, narrative work, and humor has helped her clients come to terms with trauma, stress, relational and developmental issues. She also specializes in working with children, adults, couples and families dealing with ADHD. She is thrilled at the recent advances in neuroscientific research, and how this is informing new ways of using art and creativity to explore meaning, soothe the senses, and regulate emotions. In addition to a background in film and video, she has a special interest in women’s autobiographical comics, and has been making her own cartoon art for over 15 years. Nadia also has extensive experience mentoring other therapists in their professional development, and is a visiting instructor at L’Atelier, a Masters level art therapy training program in Switzerland, affiliated with the European Graduate School.
