My ideal clients are those focused on positive change for their lives. My work with you is targeted towards the areas in which you most want to focus, which may be opening creative roadblocks; changing life directions; strengthening coping skills; grief support, difficult partnerships, or life transitions. I've worked in schools and organizations and now have private practice. My weekly individual rates are $150 per session (online) and $200 in person (midtown Manhattan). I also provide couples therapy and have a complimentary 20 minute intake to discuss your needs.
I provide grief therapy, EMDR and Flash Technique using positive and contemplative methods combined with creative expression (such as collage, pen to paper, paint, clay, photography, movement, etc.): a place where words sometimes cannot yet go.
In addition to completing my PhD in art therapy, I’ve lived many years on both the west & east coasts and support all ages from kinder to elders; couples, groups & individuals. I hold creative arts licenses in NY and NJ and am nationally board certified (ATR-BC).
