Art Therapy for Adults in Washington State

Tina V. Hays, Licensed Mental Health Counselor & Registered Art Therapist

About Me

I’m Tina, a licensed mental health counselor in Washington State and a registered art therapist.

I opened Fresco Mental Health in December 2024 after many years working in community mental health agencies in Washington, Arizona, and California. While I’ve worked with people across the lifespan, my private practice is currently focused on supporting adults.

I know that finding a therapist who has availability can be challenging—let alone finding someone who feels like a good fit. Beginning therapy can take courage, and you deserve care that feels thoughtful, respectful, and supportive.

If you’re curious about how art therapy might help, I invite you to schedule a free 15-minute consultation using the link below so we can see if working together feels right.

Individualized Support

“I want to meet you as you are, not as you ought to be.” -Virginia Satir

I offer virtual and in-person daytime appointments in an art studio setting. My approach to counseling is client centered and I utilized techniques and theoretical frameworks from a variety of therapeutic modalities. As an art therapist I won't make you do art, and no art experience is required. I work with clients to find creative insights and solutions based on their unique needs and story. Below are some of the modalities I commonly utilize.  

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT)

Trauma-Informed Care

Family Systems Therapy

Neurodivergent Affirming Care/Paradigm
