Some people come to therapy because talking hasn’t helped—or because their body knows something is wrong even when they can't explain it. I work with people who feel overwhelmed, stuck, or disconnected—and who need something more. I am here to help guide and witness your growth, where creativity meets the wild-healing through art and nature. Conversations and directives that revolve around joy, humor and a fresh perspective while working with neuroscience to explore repetitive patterns. Non-pathologizing safety, creating the life you want and deserve.
I am a Certified Eco & Art Therapist with a deep commitment to integrating creativity, spirituality, and earth based, holistic practices into person centered therapeutic interventions. My ideal client is womxn: maidens, mothers, sovereign queens, crones & creatives, I take a person centered approach and bring decades of wisdom to the table.
Together we can explore your current issues from various lenses, create process art around things that feel stuck and meander back to joy while contemplating the journey. You are okay, life is complicated! If this sounds like what you're looking for, give me a call. I offer a FREE 15 minute consultation and am excited to meet you, and help design your path!

If you need to move around to express yourself, we can walk & talk, explore movement or make art. I am always listening for the narrator in your story and encourage clients to journal and document their lifestyle goals so we can help you create the life you desire. Understanding how thoughts affect your emotions and what you can do to change that cycle will help you feel better immediately!
