Our minds and bodies hold the experiences of our lives, and sometimes the emotions behind these experiences can get stuck within us and disrupt our lives. As an art therapist, I want to help you release these emotions through various art-making processes that engage your senses. Together we will creatively explore thoughts, emotions, and relationships, and set goals. I work with clients of all ages and abilities. I have a passion for working with individuals with developmental, intellectual, and physical disabilities. I want to empower you by offering alternative ways of creating art and looking at the world, yourself.

When life becomes unfocused, or the weight of stress too much to carry, it is the resilient who seek clarity and work to better distribute the weight. It is the evolutionary elite who are able to view change and stress as an opportunity for growth and adaptation.

The decision to enter into therapy can be difficult and scary. I try to make this process less stressful and put individuals at ease. I meet every individual where they are at in the process of change and strive to provide a warm, safe, and supportive environment. I feel very passionate about the importance and value of therapy because I believe every individual can benefit from therapy at some point in his or her life. I work with individuals to help them make changes that will move them closer to feeling better and living the life he or she desires.

Life brings many stressors, and we could all benefit from a safe and supportive place to sort out our feelings and process our concerns. In counseling, I aim to provide my clients with a warm and non-judgmental space to be genuinely heard so they can feel free to communicate openly and authentically. It would be best to share your life story, perspective, and goals at your own pace, with appropriate encouragement and therapeutic challenges when necessary. The relationship we develop with ourselves is the most crucial and influential in shaping our day-to-day experience.

Instilling HOPE to those who feel stuck in their current situation by helping them identify options they have not considered is an important part of my work. I help clients identify and build on their emotional strengths and inner wisdom and teach coping skills to reduce their symptoms in order to face life's challenges in a more productive and PEACEful way. I love helping people AWAKEN to their life's purpose, find inner peace despite challenging circumstances, and learn to value themselves personally, within relationships and in their employment.

When life happens, things can get hard and it is okay to ask for help. Sometimes one simply needs the space to be able to share those feelings and to learn how to manage and cope with support from another. Therapy is a normal part of that process, part of our wellness and simple put: taking care of ourselves. Life throws curveballs and sometimes when that happens, we don't know how to respond or process those moments which is how therapy can help.
