Are you feeling stuck or overwhelmed by the fog of grief, anxiety, or perfectionism? Has a major life change left you wondering, “What happened?" Or, are you juggling multiple roles - and feeling like there's no space left for you? Are you searching for a way back to your true self? Sometimes talking isn't enough. This is where the language of the arts can offer a different way to approach these challenges. Together, through a unique combination of gentle conversation and art-making, we'll explore possibilities for reimagining and reshaping your life, so you can find a way forward towards satisfaction, joy and vitality.
I am a Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying), Expressive Arts Therapist (ExAT), and lifelong artist. My approach is client-centred, relational, and trauma-informed. Together - we'll use visual arts, movement, writing, sound - along with a good dose of curiosity - to shift perspectives and access your inner wisdom.
Our work is about co-creating a path toward healing and expansion. I offer sessions both virtually and in-person from my office in downtown Toronto.
If you are curious about how we might work together, I invite you to reach out for a free consultation.
