Art Therapy in Louisville, KY

I am an experienced art therapist with a passion for guiding children 5+, teens, and young adults on a journey of self-discovery and healing through art, talk therapy and other expressive modalities such as movement, play, and mindfulness. Clients can expect a safe and nurturing space to explore their emotions, thoughts, and challenges. These clients may be grappling with issues such as anxiety, depression, trauma, self-expression, or communication difficulties.

I have a myriad of experience using art therapy, CBT, DBT, and holistic integrative approaches for adults and children that have struggles with trauma, self-awareness, coping skills, mood regulation, parenting, relationships, family and work struggles. I believe that everyone could receive help from having a space dedicated for them to work on emotional issues ranging from minor to extreme emotional stress.

I believe treatment should be navigated delicately and without judgement. We are more than our current situation, which is why I work to understand what it took to get you where you are today, including your strengths. I take a holistic approach to healing, while also utilizing evidence-based methods such as EMDR, art therapy, ketamine-assisted therapy, and various talk therapy modalities, helping you process and tap into feelings that you may have struggled to find or articulate. Sometimes our human experience can affect us in ways we wish it didn’t, and I'd like to help you improve in areas that need most attention.

I help adults who struggle with emotional reactivity, anxiety, and distractibility. I specialise in Dialectical Behavioral Therapy and treat individuals with addiction, trauma disorders, depression, and anxiety. My current primary focus is Autism. I use shame resilience methods and mindful self compassion. I love to incorporate art, dance, yoga, and music into my work. I also strive to make mindfulness skills more accessible for people who struggle with sitting still.

I believe one of the bravest things a person can do is take the first step to find healing. Therapy can be intimidating to a lot of people, but I strive to create a safe and nonjudgmental environment where you can be your authentic self. Not only do I want you to find healing, but I want you to enjoy the process as much as possible and experience yourself on a deeper level. You are strong and worthy of living a life you love. Different traumas and emotions can make this difficult. I want you to learn how to manage your emotions, build confidence, and feel capable of handling whatever life throws at you.

McKenzie believes in working with the whole child, seeking to address mind, body, and spirit through creative expression. Vocalizing emotions and difficult experiences can often be challenging, while the act of creating can be healing. By integrating art therapy with creative play, movement, and connecting with the natural world, McKenzie invites individuals to find their unique “voice.”

I am Cadence Gazo, a Licensed Professional Art Therapist Associate and Trained EMDR Therapist dedicated to guiding and supporting people of all ages on their journey toward healing. I believe in the healing power of creative expression and a holistic approach. It can be difficult to put words to our visual experiences and emotions, especially when trauma has occurred. Expressive Therapies and EMDR can help us to connect these and bring fragmented parts of ourselves together. My goal is to facilitate a space in which you can process the difficulties of life, strengthen resiliency skills, overcome and heal from trauma, and thrive.

Looking for someone to talk to in a safe and non-judgmental environment? Life can be overwhelming at times, but I am here to listen and help process some of the challenges life can throw at you. Together, we will explore, identify, and address your needs through an individualized therapy process.
