Suffering from anxiety is exhausting. The what if'ing is constant and you know these thoughts aren't rational...but they feel so real. You find yourself often distracted because of worried thinking. You try everything to find relief (even therapy), but nothing seems to help. You avoid anxiety triggers, and this only seems to have made your world small. You wish you could wake up tomorrow with skills that work to stop the noise in your head so you can be confident to handle what life throws at you, be present with your loved ones, and stay focused at work.

I help people find their voice and true selves, whose lives have been impacted by trauma and various forms of abuse in their childhood. By engaging in deep meaningful conversation and exploring with art materials in sessions, we can choose to move from survival and reactions to owning and living our lives fully. Much of traumatic experiences reside in the non-verbal part of the brain. The use of creative art therapy allows the individual to express feelings in a visual and sensory way, allowing for a better understanding of the feeling which allows us to find our own buried truths.
