Welcome! I’m currently accepting new adult clients. My goal for each of you is to achieve self-mastery—gaining control over your thoughts, emotions, and actions to create a more fulfilling, intentional life. Whether you’re healing from trauma, navigating relationship or family struggles, or facing life’s challenges, I provide guidance with genuine empathy, respect, and compassion— both as a professional and as a person.
Creative Arts Therapy is like traditional talk therapy, but with the option to use creative methods to cope, deepen self-awareness, and shift perspectives. These techniques can also support brain health and overall well-being. My approach focuses on you as a whole person—not just your symptoms—helping you work toward a healthier, more balanced life.
I strive to create a trusting, supportive space where you feel comfortable sharing your thoughts and feelings. Together, we can explore and process what you're going through, helping you gain new insights along the way. If you think we might be a good fit, I’d love to hear from you—it would be my privilege to support you on your journey.
