Do you need a more creative way to process in therapy? Join me for Art Therapy. The daily stressors in our life can become obstacles and can bring us to feelings of isolation, loneliness, and a feeling of not being understood. We are not operating from the true self in self energy when this occurs. You can harness your true nature through creativity and art. We as individuals deserve to be heard, wanted, and loved. I work in individual counseling with evidence-based treatment through Expressive Art Therapy and Talk Therapy. I believe you have the ability to heal within and offer my services as a gentle guide on that journey.

Healing is possible! From my own personal journey, I've come to understand that healing is not always a straightforward process. It often comes in waves, presenting us with opportunities to revisit past hurts with a newfound sense of insight and understanding. Life is full of challenges, and it takes courage to navigate them. I like to think of it as sailing through storms that come and go. Some storms are worse than others, but eventually, they pass, leaving us knowing we can get through even the worst of times.

As a committed Licensed Professional Counselor and Registered Play Therapist, I specialize in working with preschool and elementary age children and their families. Children do not always have the language they need to work through their struggles. If we listen and allow the toys to be their words and play to be their language, they tell us so much. Every child has a unique wonder and light inside of them, sometimes they just need help developing their tools to be their best self. Play is how children express themselves, practice and learn new tasks, and regulate emotions. Many children can benefit from play therapy.

Please note my location. With 30+ years of practice in Anchorage, I appreciate the power of mindful listening with couples, individuals and groups. As a certified emotion focused therapist I find a respectful way of being present with others so their deep truth can be understood and assist them in finding their life forward energy. In our hurried culture our voices risk not being heard inside ourselves. We overwhelmed adults may find our vulnerability locked away, not even shared with our loved ones. It is a privilege to earn trust to share people's journey in a safe manner.

At some point in our lives, we will experience sadness, anger, betrayal, trauma, loss, anxiety and stress. This is the human condition, however depending on how we respond, this may be a warning that we are attaching negative thoughts to this pain and labeling it as suffering. Pain is not inevitable, suffering is optional. When we are able to change our thinking, we can change our responses to it. My intent is to create a safe space for people to explore and investigate their thoughts, resolve inner conflicts and achieve balance in their lives. With support and guidance, we have the power to end our suffering and heal.

"Freedom is what you do with what has been done to you," (Jean-Paul Sartre). We all have had things done to us. These things do not define us - the key is what we do with them afterward. I believe each and every person has what they need right inside of them; thus my job is not to fix or change, but to teach the skills to help you tap into that inner source. The answers you are looking for are available and can be found.

Confidentiality, trust, and therapeutic compatibility are essential for the successful resolution of a person's problems in counseling and psychotherapy. They form the foundation for an honest dialogue between client and therapist that enhances a person's ability to deal with what is true in their life. As a therapist, my job is to help clients identify and resolve those truths and move on, feeling better about themselves and more confident in their ability to handle the difficult problems and challenges that life presents.
