Living in our world can often feel dark and demoralizing as we’re exposed to forces that present daunting challenges to integral aspects of who we are. My therapeutic approach is rooted in systems thinking, addressing the interconnected dynamics of one’s inner world, the family system, interpersonal relationships, societal structures, and nature itself. “All that you touch you change. All that you change changes you. The only lasting truth is change.” Octavia Butler.
I apply art therapy as a means to metabolize emotions, calm one’s nervous system, and give form and language to our lived experience. It’s through this process of creative action that we’re able to engage with the wholeness of self, and move more fully into growth and change.
My work is to honor each individual's unique journey, acknowledging that you are the expert of your own life. My role is to reflect and reframe this expertise in a way that empowers you in your life's path, toward healing, authenticity, and in restoring trust in your inner wisdom.
