Are you feeling disconnected from yourself, your relationships, or your purpose? Maybe you’ve experienced a loss, are navigating a transition, or are curious about how past experiences may be shaping your life today. My compassionate, person-centred approach blends Art Therapy, Somatics and talk therapy to support the complex, and sometimes conflicting, emotions that come with being human. Grounded in a background in Neuroscience, my approach recognizes the powerful connection between the brain and body. I deeply believe in your innate capacity to heal and grow, and always honour that you are the expert in your own life.
Trauma is often stored non-verbally in the brain and nervous system, which can make it difficult to access through words alone. Creative and body-based approaches can offer gentle ways to explore and integrate these experiences. At a pace that feels right for you, we can explore old stories and build new associations that support greater connection and ease.
My journey into Art Therapy began as a client, where I experienced firsthand the power of creativity in healing and self-discovery. As a neurodivergent therapist, my practice is grounded in principles of safety, play, connection, and the belief that creativity is for everyone, no matter their background or abilities.

If you'd like to engage in art-making, I provide all of the supplies we may need, however, Art Therapy is just one of the approaches I offer, and is always optional. I also draw from somatic and talk-based therapies. My work is rooted in a person-centred approach, meaning your interests, needs, and goals guide our work together, shaping a therapeutic journey that feels meaningful and supportive.
