I am honored to be a part of the therapeutic process meeting clients in their current life circumstances and partnering with them as they process their thoughts, emotions, and experiences. Through the development of an warm, non-judgemental, therapeutic relationship and the use of a variety of different art materials I offer clients the space to gain personal insight, develop new skills, and connect in a new way with themselves and others. My goal as an art therapist using an integrative approach, is to create an environment, regardless of artistic ability, that fosters creativity, individual expression, and a secure sense of self.

Helping restore a sense of balance and self-worth to my client’s lives is my passion. My experience has spanned over 20 years, with a strong foundation in child and adolescent pathology. My philosophy is to work collaboratively in goal development and attainment, to highlight the connection among faulty thinking, feelings, and ineffective coping patterns, and promote healthy changes. Through empowerment to challenge these factors, comes a renewed sense of confidence, strengths, and effective skills to manage life’s stressors and relationships.

My ideal client? Probably you! Therapy requires engagement, and searching for a therapist is a great, positive step. I work with children, teens, and adults, and I've become pretty good at engaging even the most reluctant. I really enjoy helping others find their identity and their comfortable space. I tend to work with anxiety disorders, trauma, and family conflict. Of course, what is trauma and conflict without stress, anger, and low moods? I've worked with pretty much everything, and helping people identify their needs, goals, and a direction is very satisfying.

Empowering women and adolescent girls to assert their needs and ask for care and respect is the cornerstone of my practice. Taking care of yourself can be hard to do in dysfunctional relationships, divorce situations, or when you are struggling with social anxiety. My goal is to help you identify your individual strengths, gifts and talents and begin to rely on them to effectively maneuver yourself through your struggles. I believe by recognizing patterns of behavior and gaining confidence in yourself, you can choose a different path and the end result will be a calmer, happier, more-fulfilling life.

Our life's work is helping clients achieve a better sense of self and happiness...more recently we've recognized that without good mental health providers, finding this balance in life can be more difficult and stressful. As a result, we tend toward an Integrative approach and help our clients transform into the people they want to be. We see each client as an individual with many parts to their identity. Utilizing a holistic and systemic approach we help clients reintegrate the parts of themselves to function better as individuals and within their systems. Our focus tends toward a systems based approach using behavior methods.
