I want to give you the tools and support to create a life that meets your needs. As an art therapist and counselor, I believe in the power of creativity to foster connection, expression, and healing, particularly when words fall short. My goal is to meet you where you are and to create a non-judgmental space to foster change.
I’m passionate about providing support to clients who are navigating life with visible and invisible disabilities, neurodivergence, and who are in non-traditional relationships. My approach is strength-based, person-centered, and deeply informed by the disability justice movement. I am LGBTQIA+-affirming, sex-positive, kink and poly-friendly.
Working with me you can expect a collaborative relationship built on respect, trust, and authenticity. Whether this is your first time seeking therapy or you are continuing your work towards personal growth, I am here to support you. Together, we can create meaningful change and empower you to live a more fulfilling life. Reach out today to get started.
