There are many stress factors in the lives of kids that can cause them to become sad, anxious, angry or confused such as illness, loss of a loved one, the separation or divorce of parents, or adjustment to a new environment. It is often difficult for these children to put their feelings and concerns into words. Art psychotherapy is a unique way of helping children find solutions to their emotional distress. Children love to make art - to tell stories, to play imaginatively, and to express feelings. Art psychotherapy uses children's natural delight in the creative process to gain a better understanding of their inner world.

Through my experience as a therapist, I have learned that asking stimulating questions in a trusting, safe, non-judgmental space empowers people to process past experiences and understand how that history impacts relationships and decision-making today. My approach to therapy is focused on a positive and collaborative therapeutic relationship and my belief that everyone has the ability to conquer their fears and overcome hardships.

I am very fortunate to combine my three loves: people, psychology and dogs. Over the years my dogs have accompanied me to my office and have been of great therapeutic value and pleasure in their interaction with patients of all ages. Therapy is an exciting adventure in which therapist and patient agree to explore the patient's life, dreams, problems, fears, hopes and aspirations. As therapist it is my responsibility to guide: sometimes lead, share and always to jointly explore who the individual is. While everyones' therapy is different, therapy is the opportunity to pull ones' life together and develop the courage to change.
