You do not need to be an artist to benefit from art therapy! Art therapy is the process of discovering and expressing yourself creatively through a variety of mediums. I work with your feelings and beliefs about your current state and support you in creating a way to maximize your daily functioning. Art therapy is appropriate for all ages, genders, and a broad range of concerns, including: connecting to the self; identity; life transitions; relational, school, or career difficulties; attention/focus; goal setting and achievement; stressful or worrisome feelings or behavioral patterns; and coping with grief and loss.

People-pleasers, perfectionists, worriers, and warriors ages 6 to 66: this is your call to action. You want to be more in touch with yourself but you have been held back by anxiety, trauma, and people taking advantage of you. As part of the LGBTQ2IA+ and geeky communities, you sometimes feel like you're cast aside and rarely understood. It is so tempting to give up, but you continue to persevere! You've been fighting on your own for so long that now you're ready for some more support from someone who won't ask you to educate them about being queer/the MCU/BDSM/pop culture references.

Welcome creative, witchy, weird, queer, and neurodiverse (ADHD, Autistic, Hypersensitive, Gifted) folks 14 years and above. You deserve a space to put down the masks and feel accepted as you are, especially if you are at the intersection of other marginalised communities. You can make peace with your inner child, and to grieve past trauma and current violence so your relationships, career, and activism can thrive based on YOUR needs. Contact me for a therapist who understands systems of oppression, and who can offer ways to express and understand yourself more than just words or silence with gentleness and care.

Hello, I founded Causerie Sexo to allow people to approach sexuality in all its dimensions, without taboos or judgment. I agree that talking about sexuality and its problems can be embarrassing, even more so with a stranger! That's why I think it's important that you feel comfortable with me in the process. I will go at your pace and listen to your needs.

How do you encourage a woman to go to therapy?

It’s helpful to express concern and love for the person while framing therapy as a tool for improving their life. Offering specific examples of how an individual may be suffering, and what effects it has on them, should be done with compassion and with empathy. It may be useful to devise a game plan—breaking the process down into parts, such as finding a therapist, making appointments, and looking into insurance coverage.

How can women prepare for therapy?

Women can prepare for therapy by being willing to talk about their past experiences and their private thoughts. Before a session, an individual may want to reflect on how they’ve felt since the last session and what’s happened in their lives. Between sessions, it can be useful to write down notes about their reaction to a given event or how they felt at a particular time.

How long does therapy for women’s issues often last?

As with any type of therapy, sessions depend on the individual and the challenges they face. Therapy types like Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT), Prolonged exposure therapy (PET), and Eye movement desensitisation and reprocessing (EMDR) can be brief, most often ranging from between 5 and 20 sessions. In some cases, such as for women with eating disorders, residential treatment may be recommended for an individual who is judged to be at high risk of self-harm. For any therapy, the duration will depend on the progress made and results realised.

How can women overcome stigma around specific challenges in order to seek therapy?

Women dealing with domestic abuse, sexual assault, eating disorders, and any other number of troubles may feel a stigma around seeking help. It’s important to remember that these issues are not uncommon and there is no shame in getting help for them. Therapy is confidential, and women can talk about their experiences without fear of judgment. Seeking therapy can be a courageous and liberating act, and an important step toward healing and recovery.
