Raise your hand if you lie in bed at night, replaying scenarios in your head, and wishing you had handled them differently. Maybe you’re going through something that no one else understands. Maybe it feels like the walls are closing in on you. At your pace, I will help you process emotions and find clarity and meaning through self-expression. It would be awesome to increase happiness, manage emotions, reduce stress, and heal emotional pain. Create your inner peace by learning techniques that will help you be more present in your daily life.
A specialty that I offer is Expressive Art Therapy. I help children and adults use creative art as a form of therapy. Using art in therapy facilitates healing through the use of imagination and various forms of creative mediums. Expressing myself through ART has always been my outlet of choice to relieve stress/anxiety and increase enjoyment/positive mood.
No matter what your internal battle looks like, you are not alone! It is ok to cry or feel defeated. Together, we will work to gain back control of your peace of mind. I will help you unfold new self-worth, a greater use of self-care, let go of toxic relationships, and manifest goals to become your true authentic self. Look forward to living your best life!
