I offer art therapy and therapeutic arts services to a diverse range of people. I also offer virtual counselling to those based out of Ontario. Many who choose to attend therapy with me are looking for an alternative outlet to traditional therapy to aid with difficulties including but not limited to depression, anxiety, identity, transition, and grief. Previous art experience is not a requirement, and many forms of creativity may be explored depending on your areas of interest and comfort. I will structure sessions based on your needs, from planned directives to free art making, together we will discover what works for you.

I am a young artist, Professional Art Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying), and the owner of Althea Therapeutic Services. I conduct client-centered sessions with a feminist approach, striving to give space to anyone and everyone looking to explore art therapy.

I offer space for those of all cultural backgrounds and life experiences. Taking that leap into a first session can be difficult. I offer a free 15-minute phone consult, during which I can answer any of your questions and we can nudge the door open to see if I am the right fit for you.
