My passion is to engage with clients who are struggling with mental health issues and for which traditional talk therapy may not be the most helpful modality. As a certified professional art therapist, I seek to help my client find meaning, purpose, and ultimately their inner voice through the creative process. A client may come into art therapy seeking relief from a variety of issues but later find that they can oftentimes find wisdom from within. Art therapy can jog such a process where words sometimes fail. The goal of my practice is to cultivate and nurture this inner voice, and so help my client to develop greater confidence.
I have experience working in various clinical settings including inpatient psychiatry, shelters, a drug rehabilitation program, and different focus groups (grief and bereavement and coping with anxiety) with a diverse range of client concerns. I have facilitated individual and group therapy sessions.
As a certified art therapist and psychotherapist, it is important to me that my client feels heard and understood. Through the creative process and the therapeutic relationship, we will explore the meaning behind the concerns you face and how your personal story has unfolded the way it did.
