Leading others through ministry has been rewarding, but the constant grind has brought on exhaustion, chronic unease, physical problems, and anxiety. Unfortunately, these are "normal" in your life. You’ve had to press forward to achieve goals and suppress your own needs. When others see your life, they see someone who has it together, but you know the chaos inside. You have ideals you never seem to meet, leaving you feeling demoralized. You would give almost anything to have real REST, but no matter what you try, you cannot relax or find peace. You know this is not how you are meant to live.

As humans traverse along this journey called life, one should never feel that they are walking in solitude. The experience of relational conversations that affirm, support, uplift and empower should be a common occurrence, yet sometimes, that is not the case. Therefore, I do the work that I do; I counsel, I encourage, and I motivate. As a counselor, my mission is to help individuals reach their personal goals, assist in restoring families and marital relationships, and encourage children and adolescents to become their personal best.

I use expressive arts and EMDR therapy and tarot while also exploring the early events that make us who we are currently.
I love to work with queer, neurodivergent people of color and otherwise marginalized adolescents and adults, because of my interest in our collective liberation. I believe therapy is a collaborative effort and that clients are the experts in their own lives. They have the ability to choose how to resolve their problems. Of course, many issues are systemic, but what choices can we make of the things within our control? I use experiential awareness and expressive arts to create a space to develop insight in order to grow and heal.

Expressive Arts Therapists
What happens in expressive arts therapy?
In an expressive arts therapy session, the therapist will provide the space and materials necessary to encourage the client to express themselves creatively. These can include art supplies, musical instruments, a journal, a camera, and more. The therapist offers careful guidance throughout the creative process, often noticing and talking about psychological issues as they arise. Many clients also benefit from the mind-body connection—the physical act of making art can help them feel more grounded and present.
How long does expressive arts therapy take?
An expressive arts therapy session will typically last between 50 minutes and an hour. Group sessions may run longer. Sometimes, a client might only need one or two sessions of expressive arts therapy in conjunction with talk therapy to resolve a psychological issue. Others might find a fixed number of sessions over the course of either weeks or months to be beneficial. The duration depends on the client and their individual needs and goals for therapy.
How does expressive arts therapy help children?
Creativity is an important part of normal child development. Expressive arts therapy proves a safe outlet for child clients to learn to identify their emotions and express them in healthy ways. In expressive arts therapy, children can build their self-esteem, discover more about their personality and strengths, and feel a sense of normalcy in an otherwise chaotic world. This therapeutic approach can be particularly helpful for children with developmental disabilities, autism, ADHD, speech impairments, and other conditions.
What are the limitations of expressive arts therapy?
Sometimes individuals have physical limitations that can affect their ability to express themselves artistically in certain mediums. For example, someone with hearing problems might find it difficult to make music. Sickness and mobility issues can make some types of art physically inaccessible (e.g., sculpting, dancing, etc.). Sometimes, clients are overly skeptical and have trouble letting go and engaging with the creative process. Individuals who require a higher level of care may be better served with other types of therapy.
