"Finding a therapist that is a good fit for you can feel challenging. It is important for you to feel safe, comfortable and understood. I believe therapy should be a place where you feel seen and heard in a genuine way. Within this relationship you can begin to see patterns in your life where perhaps you feel stuck. It is my belief that by understanding where anxiety, depression and grief may be stemming from in your life, you can make shifts toward more successful relationships and a life with more fulfillment."

"The creative process combined with compassionate guidance has the ability to transform and heal matters of the body, mind and spirit. We will integrate traditional talk therapy with art-making, movement and meditation. Therapy is a personal journey nurtured in a non-judgmental and supportive environment. The therapeutic space offers insight to the inner world revealing emotions, memories and experiences. With this increased insight personal growth and transformation occurs, offering relief from overwhelming emotions, crisis or trauma. We will organically explore your personal needs and challenges, with the goal of maintaining wellness while living an empowered life."

"You may find yourself disappointed or frustrated in relationships or with work. You might feel that anxiety, depression, and stress are getting in the way of living a more full, productive and satisfying life.

Supportive therapy helps you to overcome problems by allowing you to gain insight so that that you can help yourself through the development of both better coping skills and healthier habits."

Often people are trying to cope with old hurts or injuries, and find that their old ways of coping with them are no longer successful,or that these strategies are the very thing that brings them pain or frustration.Often these symptoms and problems are connected with early painful experiences,or from ideas and beliefs which have been formed in rigid, or dysfunctional family systems."

"Seeking help can be a very overwhelming and humbling experience. But it is also a step toward the dignity and self-respect that come from facing, head on, your pain and suffering.
