As a counselor and art therapist, my approach comes with an understanding that people are multifaceted. When challenges arise, there is no cookie-cutter fix for the situation you may be facing as you are unique, and your therapy should be tailored to your needs. Talking about difficult matters can be hard, but it can be a little easier when you know you have someone you can trust to discuss them with. I come to sessions with the goal of being supportive, resourceful, authentic, and empathetic since building rapport is crucial to the therapeutic alliance.

I believe it is a honor and privilege to be able to help and come alongside a person as they are going through a difficult time in their life. My goal is to provide a safe environment where a individual can come and share concerns, feelings and address issues that are impacting their life. I truly believe that the therapeutic relationship between the therapist and client is of upmost importance to the client meeting their goals. Everyone has their own story to tell that involves their own personal experiences. This is why I believe the importance of looking at a persons life from when they were born to present day.

"Will life ever feel easy again?" You can't help but wonder, as all of those memories you try to keep in the dark sabotage you once more. You try to smile and move forward, to keep the past in the past. Unfortunately, the pain of what happened always returns. In spite of it all, your courage to move towards healing is there- you just don't know how to begin. You need someone that knows how this darkness feels to help you figure this out. Someone who can help unravel all these burdens in your heart and give you back your confidence. Because deep down you’re worth more than this. You've always been worth more than this.

In addition to traditional talk therapy, I am professionally trained in art therapy.
I believe one of the bravest things you can do is begin to understand your own story. Self-love and seeking out a life worth living can feel tedious, overwhelming, and out of reach. Through therapy, we can work together to better understand how to navigate life, cope with stressors, process trauma, and begin living with purpose. I use an integrated and holistic approach when working with clients that is rooted in Humanistic psychology. Additional influences include CBT, ACT, mindfulness, motivational interviewing, and attachment theory. We will work together to tailor treatment to your individual needs.

Art Therapy

How does art therapy work?

The process of making art allows people to express themselves. Art-making can take many forms, such as painting, collage, or sculpting. The therapist asks questions that the work elicits, such as how the person felt while creating their piece, or if any memories surfaced that they can discuss. The therapist will then work with the patient to process their experience, understand themselves better, and work toward change.

Does art therapy help with trauma?

Art therapy can be a valuable treatment option for those suffering from trauma. Traumatic experiences such as combat, rape, or childhood abuse can be so painful that articulating them can be too scary or painful; creating art allows people to express themselves without words, and tell their story in a different way. The physical nature of creating art can also help people feel rooted in the body, which may benefit those who feel disconnected from their body in the aftermath of trauma.

How long does art therapy last?

The duration of art therapy varies, but a common length for treatment is 10 to 15 weekly sessions. Some people may see improvement in just a few weeks, while others may choose to remain in therapy longer term. Patients should periodically discuss their goals with their therapist to make sure the two are aligned on process and progress.

What are the limitations of art therapy?

Art therapy is helpful for many people, but a limitation is that it doesn’t have as robust an evidence base as other forms of therapy, such as cognitive behavioral therapy or acceptance and commitment therapy. The evidence on art therapy is mixed; some research demonstrates its benefits, while other research suggests that it has little impact on patients.
