If You've Felt This, You're Not Alone
Traditional therapy can feel stuck inside four walls.
Maybe you've tried sitting across from a therapist in a beige office and felt like something was missing. Maybe making art has always been where you feel most inspired, but you've never had someone guide the process. Maybe you just know — deeply — that you think better outside.
Green Hollow Creative was built for you.
A canvas waiting in the pines, last light of day.
What We Offer
Art therapy that meets you where you are.
Every program is led by a credentialed art therapist and designed around a specific population. Sessions take place outdoors when weather allows and inside the mobile studio when it doesn't.
Group Workshops
Small-group workshops focused on a specific theme — seasonal change, grief, creative re-entry. Held in public green spaces around Kansas City.

Meet Your Therapist
Madeline Holloway, M.S.
Being outside changes what's possible in a session.
Madeline is a credentialed art therapist trained at Emporia State University. Before art therapy, she spent years working with children at a nature-based therapeutic program in Olathe, where she saw firsthand how being outside changes what's possible in a session.
Green Hollow Creative is the practice she built to bring that same quality of attention to adults and families across the Kansas City metro.
Where We Meet
Area of services.
Sessions happen across the Kansas City metro and the surrounding region — from St. Joseph and Smithville down through Overland Park, Spring Hill, and Warrensburg.
Each ★ marks a green-space partnership where we hold sessions and workshops in parks, gardens, and nature preserves.
If your community is on the map — or near it — let's talk.
Is This Right For You?
Art therapy isn't for everyone. Here's who tends to thrive.
This is likely a fit if you…
- Feel drawn to creative expression but have never made space for it
- Want a therapy approach that doesn't require constant verbal processing
- Are processing grief, change, or transition and want room to sit with it
- Prefer being outdoors to being in a clinical office
- Value a slower pace and time to notice
This probably isn't a fit if you…
- Are in acute crisis and need immediate psychiatric care
- Want strictly talk-based cognitive therapy with homework assignments
- Are not able to meet outdoors or in a mobile studio setting
- Expect fast, measurable symptom reduction as the primary goal
Not sure? That's what the free consultation is for.
