Getting to know Nala Turner

I am a licensed creative art therapist (MPS, LCAT, ATR-BC) and ceramics artist with over 5 years of experience providing supportive, strength-based therapy to adults, teens, and older adults managing various mental health challenges. I'm licensed in both New York and Maryland, and hold board certification in Art Therapy. Whether you have specific goals or are new to therapy, I will support you through self-discovery and instigate exploration of the world around you. I enjoy working with people from all walks of life, holding a culturally inclusive space as my top priority.

What should a new client know about working with you?

I practice a multiform approach that integrates the creative process with evidence-based practices, including Art Therapy, CBT, Somatic Therapy, and Solution-Focused Brief Therapy to provide high-quality treatment. I hold specialties in working with individuals experiencing depression, anxiety/panic, low self-esteem, complex trauma, racial identity challenges, and relationship or social transitions.

What is your typical process for working with clients?

As a therapist, I facilitate self exploration and emotional integration, utilizing both art and talk therapy depending on your individual needs. I believe in integrating somatic experience to work through discomfort, process challenges, and create adaptive coping strategies––empowering you to navigate life's complexities with confidence and resilience. Within 1:1 sessions, you will be guided through learning to channel and transform instinctual reactions, freely explore and identify strengths and spaces of improvement in order to emotionally integrate.
