Elizabeth Kardamis LPC, LPAT, 200hr RYT

I integrate mindfulness-based CBT through the expressive and embodied practices of art therapy and yoga. Art-making offers a nonjudgmental space to explore thoughts, emotions, and experiences, while yoga cultivates awareness of the body, breath, and present moment. Together, these practices support clients in recognizing unhelpful patterns, regulating emotions, developing self-compassion, and creating meaningful, intentional change.

My therapeutic approach combines creative expression, yoga, and movement to support emotional healing, self-discovery, and personal growth. Through art-making, mindful movement, breathwork, and body awareness, clients can explore thoughts, feelings, and experiences that may be difficult to express through words alone. This integrative process encourages self-expression, emotional regulation, deeper body connection, and greater resilience while honoring each person’s unique way of healing.

I use mindfulness-based CBT to help clients better understand their thoughts, emotions, and behavioral patterns while developing practical tools for coping and change. My approach integrates mindfulness, cognitive-behavioral strategies, body awareness, and self-compassion. I provide a collaborative, trauma-informed space where clients can slow down, build emotional awareness and regulation, and develop meaningful skills to navigate anxiety, stress, life transitions, and other challenges.

I incorporate art-based therapeutic techniques to help clients express thoughts, emotions, and experiences that may be difficult to put into words. Creative exploration can support self-awareness, emotional processing, mindfulness, and self-compassion while providing a safe space to explore inner experiences. I use art as a pathway to insight, healing, and meaningful change, tailoring creative approaches to each client’s needs, comfort, and goals.

I incorporate yoga, gentle movement, and body awareness into therapy to help clients reconnect with their bodies and strengthen the mind-body connection. These practices can support mindfulness, grounding, stress reduction, emotional regulation, and self-awareness. I offer gentle, individualized movement practices that honor each client’s comfort, abilities, and needs, using movement as a therapeutic tool to release tension, cultivate self-compassion, and support healing and overall well-being.
