Welcome, and congratulations on taking this courageous step toward healing, self-discovery, and change. As a licensed art therapist, I help guide people through the transformative power of their own creativity. Art makes the invisible visible, and it communicates when words are insufficient, uncomfortable, or unsafe. I am here to help you tell your story through images and words, and to support your goals with empathy and non-judgment. Sometimes that involves art-making, sometimes conversation, often both. Wondering if art therapy might be a good fit for you or your family member? Let's chat.
Art-making is a whole-brain activity from which anyone of any age or background can benefit. In addition to being a supportive coping strategy, the bilateral process of creating can help the body process trauma in a way that words alone cannot. Art experience, talent, or even interest is not necessary or required for us to work together effectively.
When you work with a therapist you are co-creating meaningful change for your life. More so than any specialty or intervention, the therapeutic relationship lies at the core of that change. Finding someone with whom you connect and with whom you feel safe is crucial. I offer a free fit consultation so that you can meet with me and decide for yourself.

I utilize various modalities within my art therapy practice. For trauma and grief-focused work EMDR is an evidence-based practice that overlaps and integrates effectively. I also interweave tenets from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Attachment Theory. But, my clients are in the driver's seat of their own therapeutic process. I consider it my job to be adaptive to their needs and goals.
