I offer creative arts therapies including art therapy, sand tray, and play techniques to help them overcome challenges.

My areas of specialty: trauma, depression, anxiety, relationship struggles, life adjustments and emotional regulation with children.
Life can be overwhelming. It throws you curve balls, and sometimes it just feels hard to navigate. Maybe it’s a divorce, job change, becoming a parent, death in the family, or any other life transition. Life can bring us baggage and even though we think we have it contained, it can seep into other areas of our life that we are trying to navigate through. I work with people who want to understand themselves better so they can continue to thrive in life. I want to help empower you to find balance within yourself and learn to fine tune your ability to respond to situation in which you feel in control with better balance and regulation.

You know you need help, but don’t know who to talk to or if talking will even change anything. You’ve experienced a trauma and you are tired of talking about it, but you don’t want to feel “that feeling" anymore. You know that something is wrong, but you can’t seem to put words to it. Or maybe you have been to therapy before and just talking about it didn’t seem to help. Perhaps your child is not behaving in school like he or she used to, they’re no longer talking, grades are falling and their getting into fights. Maybe your family just doesn’t get it, if you could just do or be what they want things will be ok, but there not.

Check your spam folder if you send a message or email but do not receive a response! Are you nervous about getting help? Do you think therapy can't or won't help you? Are you worried that you aren't doing enough as a parent or that you don't know what to do? Nervousness is normal, and thinking you're beyond help is when reaching out for help is the best thing you can do. As for children, I've seen and been on the receiving end of many behaviors for several years, and I still love working with them. Needing help is not a sign of weakness, it's a sign of awareness. Learning how to manage your symptoms means you're trying.
