Looking for an alternative to “sit and stare” or wanting more than just validation? If you have battling anxiety, perfectionism, or the crippling desire to please everyone, you’re in the right place. Maybe you've been dealing with intergenerational trauma, academic pressures, or identity struggles and the burden feels unbearable. You don’t have to keep muscling through it alone.
As a trauma-informed art therapist/counselor, I understand that you have been shaped by countless influences and experiences, and strive to honor the complexities of your story. I value the intersection of faith and emotional health, and welcome clients of various belief systems. I offer art therapy for teens, college students, and women in-person & online.
Art therapy can be a great tool in healing and re-writing your story. With art therapy, you don’t have to verbalize all your deepest traumas—symbols and images can often assist you in getting your message across. You might even have fun while creating something new. If you think we might be a good fit, please reach out. I look forward to connecting with you!

I work with clients navigating anxiety/depression connected to their family or significant life transitions like divorce, adoption, or returning to/finishing school. Our initial session focuses on understanding your history and experiences. From there, we collaborate to create a personalized treatment plan aligned with your values and hopes for therapy.

As an art therapist, I utilize a mix of creative approaches to invite you to creatively express your experience, explore your strengths, navigate challenges, and move toward lasting well-being. While I guide the process, you are an active collaborator. This looks like choosing art supplies that resonate with you, moving as you need to, and knowing we can always pivot.
