I work with children and adults and can help with many issues including but not limited to anxiety, depression, stress, self-esteem, emotion regulation, etc. These symptoms often arise from a wide array of experiences and situations that can range from things like developmental diagnoses and/or identity concerns to trauma.

I find that an empathetic approach is the best way to build rapport and trust with a client. I am fortunate to have worked across many populations (infants, children, adolescents, adults, geriatrics, military personnel, special needs, etc) and feel that creative arts therapy is universal. I have experience in a myriad of diagnoses ranging from anxiety and depression to acute psychiatric disorders.
