Check out the 'group' section below updated info on psychodrama/ improv groups & women's retreats/ As a creative psychotherapist, I help folks struggling with trauma, anxiety, depression, self-doubt, and the relentless demands of perfectionism to identify the stories that no longer serve them and seek out new and hopeful perspectives. I support my clients in processing their relationship to the self and others and in seeking authentic self-expression. Regardless of the narratives you hold about yourself, either from family or society, you are deserving of peace and happiness.
You do not have to be an artist to benefit from creative arts therapy! In our sessions, we may explore different roles that show up in your relationships, create art, improvise, practice mindfulness, or simply talk through your day. I help my clients tap into their bodily experiences as a valuable source of knowledge and offer EMDR processing for trauma.
Starting the healing process can feel intimidating. Whether this is your first time in therapy or your 100th, you can expect me to provide warmth, a sense of humor, and a judgment-free space in which to express yourself and explore your unique hopes and needs. My job is to help build a trusting, supportive and affirming relationship on day one.

Trained as a drama therapist, I use an eclectic approach uniquely designed to meet each client's individual needs. My work is always sensitive and trauma informed but may also include more expressive or cognitive based work depending on the need at hand. EMDR can be a very powerful tool when processing trauma. Regardless of my approach, I infuse warmth, creativity and humor into all my sessions.
