About: Carrie believes that the healing process is a journey that takes courage and bravery. She feels honored to walk alongside others and meeting them where they are. Carrie Windett is an art therapist and mental health counselor. She received her masters degree in Adlerian Psychotherapy and Counseling with a focus in art therapy at Adler Graduate School in Richfield, Minnesota. Her bachelors degree was completed at Bethel University in Saint Paul, Minnesota, where she majored in Fine Art and minored in Psychology.

Carrie’s approach is authentic, open, and provides the space to gain introspection in a fun atmosphere. In therapy, creative expression through art materials provides a way to see problems from a different perspective developing a more accepting mindset. There is no pressure in the art therapy room, it does not require artistic experience or skill; Carrie meets you where you’re at with no judgment, simply providing guidance. She is passionate about helping you find the strengths and gifts that reside in you, encouraging confidence, and self-compassion. She focuses on building resilience, changing thought patterns, expressing emotions, and building a stronger relationship with all parts of self. Therapy provides a safe place with containment for you to better understand who you are, what your purpose is, and how you can live it out daily. Carrie enjoys helping people experience healing and joy through art therapy. Also, Carrie is happy to integrate Christian beliefs into the therapy experience if you desire that approach.
