I would like to help mediate your troubles and promote healing by helping you develop strategies that can help reduce anxieties and stress.
In this fast-paced environment, we often struggle to find time for self-reflection, resulting in anxiety, depression, and overwhelming stress, impacting our well-being. Trauma and hardships can further strain relationships, work, and school, making a "normal" life seem unattainable. But know that you're not alone. I'm here to support you on your journey to healing and restoring balance in your life. Let's work together to embrace resilience and reclaim the joy of living.

Through creative expression and psychoanalytic psychotherapy my clients have experienced increased hope for the future, a more positive mindset, decreased anxiety and stress, identity affirmation, behavior regulation and improved self-esteem.
I believe that we never lose our creative spark, and that with the right tools, it can be accessed and implemented as a healing force. With creative expression, we can imagine real life scenarios through multiple lenses, and look into the past and the future through different perspectives. No matter your age, art-making can be used to make sense of our emotional landscape, foster self-compassion and organize our thoughts, which can get jumbled in the hustle and bustle of life. I utilize an integrative approach that marries both Art Therapy and traditional psychotherapy. No experience using art materials is needed!

Support can be hard to come by. In times of stress it can be helpful to have a space where you can process the challenges that you experience in life. The hardest part of the process in seeking therapy is in making initial contact. Having a therapist that can work collaboratively from a nonjudgmental and compassionate place. It is important for the client to feel comfortable in order to engage in a meaningful and authentic way.
