PAUSE, CREATE, & RECONNECT WITH YOURSELF

Through mindful creativity and expressive arts, you'll discover fresh ways to slow down, reflect, and renew. Using collage, journaling, guided imagery, and the SoulCollageĀ® method, I offer enjoyable and welcoming workshops designed to help you access your own inner insight and wisdom. No art experience is needed, just curiosity and an open heart and mind.

Welcome! My name is Martha Hauston. I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in Massachusetts with more than twenty years of clinical experience, and presently a Behavioral Health and Recovery Services staff psychotherapist with UMass Memorial Healthcare.

With a MA in Counseling Psychology from Cambridge's Lesley University, where I studied with internationally recognized art therapist Shaun McNiff, and a MEd in Creativity and Adult Learning from UMass Amherst, my career has focused on integrating creative processes and thinking with personal growth. Prior career experiences have included arts programming for UMass Amherst Fine Arts Center as well as English language curriculum design and instruction for immigrant populations in Boston.
