Professional statement

Antoinette Huryk, is a Licensed Creative Arts Therapist based in Brooklyn, New York.Her passion in this work is end of life and grief. She has several years experience in trauma and addiction.

Having worked with children and adults with developmental delays this inspired her to seek further training in helping others who are often overlooked and misunderstood. The Master’s program at Eastern Virginia Medical school for Art Therapy and Counseling offered various experiences that offered a brief insight into different institutions. This included a Behavioral Health unit in a hospital, Juvenile Detention, and a school for alternative learning. After graduating she worked as the Art Therapist inside a men’s mental health shelter supporting those experiencing, in addition to homelessness, extreme medical needs, addiction, psychosis, and re-adjusting to society after significant prison sentences.

Annie is currently working in collaboration with House of Wellness PLLC. This is an online practice seeing clients on an individual and/or group basis.


Message to clients

On this journey of life we are thrown endless change. Finding stability and a way through can be difficult alone. I am here to offer assistance in determining for yourself what this all means, how our past experiences shape our present, and how to cope with what may lie ahead.

I work within a Trauma informed Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) model with the Humanistic understanding that we do not exist in a vacuum. Our, often uncontrollable, environments play a significant part in our mental health. Additionally, as a trained art therapist, we can also incorporate the visual or sensory to expand out on ideas that words may limit. However if that is not for you, art making is not required.

If you're looking for a support in this crazy thing called life, reach out.
