Bio:
I support individuals of all ages who are experiencing anxiety, frustration, loss, fear, or confusion- helping them rediscover a sense of grounding, balance, and clarity in their lives. My work integrates person-centered psychotherapy with the expressive and restorative power of Art Therapy, creating a space where healing can unfold through both words and creativity.
Art Therapy offers a gentle, non-threatening way to explore emotions and experiences that may be difficult to articulate verbally. Using age-appropriate materials and creative directives, clients are encouraged to express themselves freely, gain new insight, and reconnect with their inner resilience. Each session is tailored to meet the individual needs of the client, honoring their unique experiences and pace of healing.
I have extensive experience working with children, adolescents, and adults navigating challenges such as childhood trauma (medical and otherwise), chronic illness, grief and loss, mental illness, and generalized anxiety. Whether through conversation, creative exploration, or a combination of both, my goal is to provide a safe and compassionate environment that supports emotional growth, self-understanding, and lasting change.
