Nikki Blakesley, PsyD

For years you’ve hidden yourself away, tucked into a box, because you were told you weren’t good enough as you are. You were told you had to follow “the rules” of your family, friends, or religious community in order to be loved and accepted. Rules like: what to wear, how to act, who to love.

So you did. You lived by their rules, afraid that if you shared your opinions, beliefs, and identities with your family, friends, or religious community they would have nothing to do with you. And you can’t do it anymore.

You deserve to be fully you. I can help.

I use art in therapy to work with career folks who are tired of living their lives by the “rules” of their family, friends, or religious communities and want to embrace their true selves. I empower my clients to use art in their lives to explore, nurture, and accept their identities. I specialize in working with people who have left the church, people who still identify as Christian, and people in the LGBTQIA+ community.

There is nothing “wrong with you,” there is something wrong with the world and the systems in it. You are beautiful. You are enough. If you want to believe this, but don’t know how to start, schedule a free consultation with me today.
