I work with individuals navigating identity, self-expression, and past trauma. My approach is rooted in creating a safe, affirming space where you can explore your emotions and experiences, free from judgment. I believe in the power of creativity to heal and empower, helping you reconnect with yourself and build the confidence to live authentically. Whether you're seeking healing from past wounds or simply a space to explore who you are, I'm here to support you on your journey toward self-acceptance and growth. My aim is to provide a contained, thoughtful therapeutic space where meaningful and lasting change can unfold at your pace.
I bring seven years of experience in creative wellbeing, supporting individuals and communities to use art as a tool for reflection, resilience, and emotional regulation. In 2021, I began formal training as an art psychotherapist to deepen my clinical skills and work more safely and ethically with trauma and complex emotional experiences.
In our work together, I offer structured yet flexible sessions tailored to your needs. We might use image-making to explore patterns, develop coping strategies, strengthen self-awareness, or work through experiences that feel overwhelming or stuck. You don’t need to see yourself as “creative” — the focus is on process, not artistic skill.
