No longer seeing in-person clients. "You can't cross the sea merely by standing and staring at the water." -Rabindranath Tagore. Whether you have tried many therapists, or have never been to therapy, I am comfortable working with people who are skeptical about the counselling process. I bring a trauma-informed lens to counselling to help you work through tricky moments from the past and present that we may or may not be entirely aware of. I have a person-centred approach, which means that I work collaboratively with you, at your own pace.

As an RCC, Art Therapist, and Somatic Experiencing Practitioner, I blend talk therapy with somatic awareness, mindfulness, and creative art-based exploration.
Feeling overwhelmed, anxious, or stuck in a cycle of “shoulds” and self-comparison? Exhausted by the pressure to do it all, yet unsure how to slow down? You’re not alone. Many of the people I work with are navigating burnout, self-doubt, body image concerns, or life transitions that have pulled them away from who they are. You might feel overwhelmed by “shoulds,” self-comparison, or the weight of expectations. What you really want is to feel more grounded, connected, and confident—like yourself again. Therapy can be a space to breathe, reflect, and begin that return.

Sessions move between art, body awareness, and real conversation.
If anxiety about how you're seen in the world has started running the show, or your relationship with your body feels like something you're surviving instead of living in, you're in the right place.
Much of my work lives at the intersection of body image, anxiety, and self-worth. I'm trained in dismantling weight bias and supporting people navigating appearance-based shame — the particular exhaustion of existing in a body that the world won't stop having opinions about. This work is somatic, creative, and grounded in the understanding that how you feel about yourself didn't start with you.

Art Therapy Counsellors
How does art therapy work?
The process of making art allows people to express themselves. Art-making can take many forms, such as painting, collage, or sculpting. The therapist asks questions that the work elicits, such as how the person felt while creating their piece, or if any memories surfaced that they can discuss. The therapist will then work with the patient to process their experience, understand themselves better, and work toward change.
Does art therapy help with trauma?
Art therapy can be a valuable treatment option for those suffering from trauma. Traumatic experiences such as combat, rape, or childhood abuse can be so painful that articulating them can be too scary or painful; creating art allows people to express themselves without words, and tell their story in a different way. The physical nature of creating art can also help people feel rooted in the body, which may benefit those who feel disconnected from their body in the aftermath of trauma.
How long does art therapy last?
The duration of art therapy varies, but a common length for treatment is 10 to 15 weekly sessions. Some people may see improvement in just a few weeks, while others may choose to remain in therapy longer term. Patients should periodically discuss their goals with their therapist to make sure the two are aligned on process and progress.
What are the limitations of art therapy?
Art therapy is helpful for many people, but a limitation is that it doesn’t have as robust an evidence base as other forms of therapy, such as cognitive behavioral therapy or acceptance and commitment therapy. The evidence on art therapy is mixed; some research demonstrates its benefits, while other research suggests that it has little impact on patients.
