Licensed Creative Arts Therapist / Psychotherapist

Simeng Wang, LCAT, New York Licensed Creative Arts Therapist, visual artist, dancer, and performer. English and Mandarin Chinese art therapy in New York State

I am a Licensed Creative Arts Therapist (LCAT) providing therapy in both English and Mandarin Chinese. I currently offer telehealth therapy throughout New York State and am accepting new clients.

I have worked extensively with people from diverse backgrounds experiencing complex emotional, social, and life challenges. My clinical experience includes adult inpatient psychiatry, addiction recovery, and outpatient mental health care. I hold a Master of Professional Studies (MPS) in Art Therapy from the School of Visual Arts and a Bachelor of Fine Arts (BFA) in Painting from the Rhode Island School of Design.

My approach is relational, person-centered, trauma-informed, and strength-based. I believe that therapy can be more than labels or diagnoses. I aim to build connections with you through a humanistic lens, with curiosity, warmth, and respect for your lived experience.

My practice is deeply shaped by my own creative journey as a visual artist, dancer, and performer. I experience daily the powerful ways that creativity can support growth, healing, and personal transformation, and I hope to offer you a space where your own creative energy can grow and become a source of inspiration.

In art therapy, expression can take many forms: drawing, painting, collage, sculpture, movement, dance, mindfulness, creative writing, acting, music, vocal exploration, imaginative play, and so much more. You do not need to be “good at art” to begin. The creative process is not about performance, but a way for you to dive deeper within yourself. In this space, you are invited to become the artist of your own story.

Whether you are beginning your creative healing work, feeling blocked in your art or life, or hoping to deepen your relationship with yourself or others through a more engaging and embodied form of therapy, I would be honored to walk the journey with you. My hope is to help you feel seen, heard, supported, and invited back into your own creative life energy and sense of belonging.
