We all go through adverse life experiences that can take a toll on our emotional well-being. The stress of the past can sometimes end up following us and continuing to drive how we feel and the decisions we make. However, these hardships that we go through do not have to end up hindering our functioning and stagnating our growth. I also specialize in depression, self-esteem, anxiety, women and cultural issues. I have expertise in working with individuals who have experienced physical, emotional and/or sexual trauma or neglect during their childhood.

As an art therapist, I work best with clients who are navigating life’s complexities, often feeling overwhelmed by grief, anxiety, or past traumas that have impacted their emotional and physical well-being.

They’re drawn to creative expression as a means of understanding themselves, hoping to find a grounded, compassionate guide who respects their individuality and empowers them to grow.

Life is full of “shoulds.” Family, friends, and society often have a very clear idea of the path we’re supposed to be on, but we believe that peace and empowerment lie in finding your own path- worrying less about the expectations of others and more about what you want your life to look like. Taking an alternative path or changing route along the way is difficult. Therapy can help as you strive to be true to yourself on the journey. We offer a space where individuals learn to utilize their personal strengths to live their most meaningful lives, develop fulfilling relationships, and find true liberation.

Moving towards change can be one of the most difficult steps, even when it’s the step we want to take. Stuck, hurt, scared, or lost; finding your path again is possible. We can start with where you are and work together in understanding your thoughts and emotions so you can move towards living a life where you feel your most authentic self. Whether you want to work through coping with different moods, breaking thought patterns, have other specific goals, or simply need someone to process weekly stressors with, I hope to provide a safe, trusting, non-judgmental space for you to reflect, heal, and grow.
