Hi, I am an art therapist. I work with people struggling with depression, anxiety, loneliness or who simply feel dissatisfied with their life and wish to maximize their well being and potential. I am comfortable working with all ages, genders, orientations, ethnicities and acknowledge the impact of colonization and systems of oppression on well being. I work collaboratively, with the belief that you have the inner resources; strengths, creativity, resilience and imagination to heal. I will provide a safe, gentle and compassionate space to help guide your journey of self-exploration and self- expression through art materials.
Over 20 years of facilitating art has given me a strong belief in its' healing potential. My approach is collaborative, feminist, person-centered and strength based. Our sessions together will give you the opportunity to immerse yourself in the creative process and to find in, or bring meaning to, whatever emerges. No experience in art is necessary.
It would be an honour and a joy to witness you create and to share in your personal story. Some clients are concerned about using art materials but are surprised by the pleasure and ease experienced making art. I encourage you to reach out and try this approach with me.
