About
I enjoy working with people of all ages. I have witnessed how art therapy can help people coping with life changes and challenges such as grief, loss, illness, injury, relationship and family issues, academic and professional pressures, stress, anxiety, depression, self-esteem issues, sexuality and life transitions. Therapy, enhanced by the use of art therapy and mindfulness meditation (if desired) can help people process their emotions around difficult life situations and conditions and help people to heal, focus on living their authentic lives and thrive.
People may want to talk to process what are going through in a difficult period of their lives. Creating art and/or meditating can help shine a light on emotions and act as a stepping stone to talking about feelings that were previously hidden or difficult to express. Art-making and meditation can also be tools to relax and reduce stress.
I am an empathic listener and care deeply about my clients. I believe in everyone's innate ability to build resilience. Each client is an individual with unique needs and we will work together to choose the best path to relief, healing, personal growth and resiliency.
