In today’s world most people have experienced a variety of stressors that seem to weave throughout life. Trying to balance a sense of normalcy in the day to day can become overwhelming when you don’t understand why you think, act, or cope the way you do. Anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, stress and destructive thoughts can impact the relationship you have with yourself and others. Realizing you are at a point where you may need more insight or guidance can be distressing. Finding the right type of help shouldn't cause additional worry.
I am an art therapist, counselor, social worker and reiki practitioner who has been practicing since 2012. I utilize CBT, EMDR, art, motivational interviewing and holistic techniques to create a calm and comfortable environment. Sessions are tailored to your goals and the art or counseling directives utilized can change to fit what will be most beneficial.
If you are at a point where something needs to change but you are unsure what or how I am here to help guide you. Reaching out to a stranger for help can feel anxiety ridden and vulnerable. I view this as admirable as you are ready to put into action new ways to renovate how you think, feel and act.

I work with adults who are struggling with anxiety, depression, PTSD, etc. During our initial session we do an assessment to get an idea of a treatment plan and how I can best help. Most of my clients see a decrease in initial symptoms after 1-2 months and in time we space out appointments if needed. Art therapy and EMDR can be woven into counseling interventions as needed.

I often use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing (EMDR), Art therapy, meditations and reiki in my practice. After the first session (assessment), we will discuss a treatment plan and what modalities can help you. CBT is best for anxiety, depression and thought rumination. EMDR helps with core negative thoughts/feelings/fears.
