Art therapy is a powerful tools for emotional processing, self-expression and healing. And you don't need to be good at art to benefit from it.
I offer virtual and in-person therapy to individuals aged 13+ providing both psychotherapy and/or art therapy. I support those struggling with anxiety, depression, self-esteem, burnout and post-traumatic stress. You can expect a collaborative and safe space in therapy with me, where your unique needs take centre stage.
By integrating expressive arts, somatic and mindfulness techniques into sessions, we work on the mind, body and creative levels of wellbeing. My trauma-informed approach acknowledges the impact of past experiences on your present, and together we untangle the patterns that are keeping you feeling stuck.
Finding the right therapist can be hard, which is why I offer a free 15 minute phone or video consultation to see if I'm the right fit for you.
I welcome people of all identities and backgrounds, and am committed to creating a compassionate, affirming space where LGBTQ+ clients and people of colour can feel safe, respected, and fully themselves.
