Imagine someone deeply gripped by addiction, feeling overwhelmed and desperate for a way out. Physically, they suffer from symptoms like insomnia, fatigue, and malnutrition due to substance abuse. Emotionally, they're trapped in shame, guilt, and despair, straining relationships and damaging their self-worth. Mentally, cravings dominate their thoughts, leaving little room for anything else. Spiritually, they feel disconnected and purposeless, sinking deeper into isolation and despair. If this scenario is playing out in your life, it may be the right time to call. I will offer you a safe non-judgemental space to discuss these issues.

Meaningful and lasting change. Isn’t that what we’re all looking for? I am here to help those struggling with general anxiety, social phobia, mild to severe depression, or stress related disorders. If you are tired of dreading getting out of bed each morning, or wondering why you "feel this way" - I am here to help create change and turn off the "struggle switch." I work from a third wave behavioral approach (ACT) that will empower you with coping skills to overcome these obstacles. Change doesn’t happen overnight, but it can start today.

I know life can be hard, and if you have experienced trauma it can be difficult to talk about. Sometimes a different approach is needed. As a trauma-informed, expressive art therapist, building trust and safety is always my first goal. Together, we can find creative ways to understand your inner experience and uncover new coping skills that feel aligned with your current values. I offer individual and group work. My ideal clients are curious, willing to explore, and eager to develop more compassion and a deeper understanding of self. I work with adults ages 18 and older.

I understand that life is really hard sometimes. Life can break a heart, and yet, with support, it can also open it up. Life's challenges can open your heart to the world and new perspectives. Knowing that both can exist at the same time, the pain and suffering as well as the beauty and joy. Sometimes we have to sit in the pain we can't control or solve. That acceptance is scary and ultimately freeing. It provides clarity and allows you to be with what is. We've been taught that 'bad' emotions must be pushed away.

Recovery from active addiction is possible. I’m not promising it will be easy or happen overnight, but I can promise it’s worth it. Life is for living, and this isn’t a dress rehearsal.
