Hi, I'm Dr. Mary Andrus (she/her). I am passionate about art therapy, helping people find their creative voice, finding play and connecting with themselves through ART.
Living in the Pacific Northwest for the past 10 years, I’m proud to call Oregon my home. I wear many hats, educator, therapist, filmmaker, activist, mom… I am a studio-based art therapist, where I use creative embodied art media and materials to support people with their goals.
I have been in the field of art therapy for 25+ years. I spearheaded the Art Therapy License in Oregon, specialize in treating trauma, have training in EMDR and IFS, have published many book chapters, articles and made many films about art therapy.
I am available for consultation, individual counseling, supervision, and workshops . I offer in-person group supervision utilizing an embodied somatic studio based approach.
I live and work on the traditional land of the Tualitin Kalapuya, Ahantchuyuk and Atfalati peoples. I acknowledge the indigenous peoples who have been stewards to this land for many generations and recognize that these words do little to undo centuries of harm.
