Accepting new clients in Baldwinsville in July 2026! I’m a Licensed Creative Arts Therapist who values creating a space that feels safe, genuine, and easy to step into. My style is warm, down to earth, and collaborative, and I believe therapy works best when you feel truly seen and met where you are.
I work with children ages 3+, teens, adults, parents, and families. I support people navigating loss and grief, serious and terminal medical illness, chronic illness, trauma, stress, anxiety, depression, school and work challenges, relationship struggles, disability, parenting concerns, and life transitions.
Using a trauma-informed psychodynamic approach, I integrate talk therapy with Art Therapy, Sandtray Therapy, Internal Family Systems (IFS), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), somatics and play. This allows us to work in ways that go beyond words, accessing emotions and trauma stored in the mind and body to heal. We move at a manageable and respectful pace.
My goal is to create a safe space that feels grounded, supportive, and real. Therapy doesn’t have to be intimidating or overly clinical. It can be a place to slow down, explore what’s going on beneath the surface, and reconnect with yourself in a way that feels authentic and manageable.
