Artist, Art Therapist, and
Licensed Professional Counselor
welcome!
​
Life can be hard sometimes…difficult to see a path ahead clearly…struggling to identify what needs changing…or how to cope effectively with all of life’s complexities. I am here to help guide you in that process.
I believe that for the therapeutic process to be effective, a partnership must be formed with a real and genuine connection. I want to collaborate with you to form goals and assess progress along the way. Every individual is unique and complex, that is why I tailor my approach to meet the needs of each person I work with. Typically, I counsel within a holistic and existential framework. Each approach is integrated and aimed to explore a client’s experience and involved systems. I want to encourage and empower people to search for meaning and live authentically through creative expression and investigation of self and the world around them. You are your own expert, share your story and we will forge the way together.
I am a licensed professional counselor and a registered art therapist. I have been in practice for five years with experience in a variety of treatment settings including community-based services, a substance use rehabilitation clinic, ASD programs in early childhood, and a residential treatment facility for severely emotionally disturbed teens and those involved in the juvenile justice system. I currently offer treatment for children (ages 7+), adolescents, adults, and older adults.
Along with a specialization in Art Therapy, I utilize other empirically supported interventions such as Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). I have additional training in trauma informed care and clinical supervision. I specialize in anxiety, depression, abuse/neglect, trauma, mood and personality disorders, gender identity concerns, working with LGBTQIA+ and non-conforming folks, as well as other adjustment and transitional concerns. I value diversity and inclusion by providing a non-judgmental, culturally sensitive, safe space for growth.
I’d love to meet you, reach out when you feel ready and we can get started on the open road.
