Creatively

A blog for people looking to learn more about Art Therapy and how creativity can lead to self-discovery, balance and new ways of tackling old problems. 

Hello 2020 and welcome to the Parenting  Creatively  blog!

1/1/2020

 
Happy New Year and welcome to my blog! My name is Janette D. Macias. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with a private practice in Mckinney, Texas. I have specialized training in Art Therapy and am currently finishing my full licensure hours. My love of art, and it’s ability to express our deepest experiences when words fail us, then lead me to incorporating art therapy in my practice. 
 
I am passionate about working with teens and young adults as they learn to navigate the transitions into adulthood. Teens and young adults are often overlooked and misunderstood. Unlike most of the adults they interact with who have specific goals for them in mind, I offer them a space to be truly seen and heard just as they are; messy, creative, and eager to take on life. 
 
I have found that the therapeutic hour does not always allow for enough time to work with both the teen and their parents. There’s just too much ground to cover. Between works, long school days, after school activities, and home-life it’s hard for parent’s to find time to come in for parent consults or coaching sessions. I find it extremely important to help parents of teens and young adults work through this complicated and exciting part in the parenting journey.
 
It is this “finding time” issue that led me to creating this blog. I want a space for parents, like you, to come when you finally do have those few moments to yourself. I want you to find both validation in your experience of parenting teens, and some helpful information to support you in feeling more empowered, confident and connected when parenting. Part of being a present, intentional and supportive parent is making sure you are taking care of yourself too. With this in mind I plan on sharing ways to ensure your self-care needs are being met.
 
You can expect a weekly blog post, just like this one, with a given topic and free downloadable  tips/guide sheets to help you not just survive the teen years but thrive!
 
Here’s to 2020 being the year you get into Parenting Creatively! Get excited!
