Taking the first step to get in and talk to a therapist about concerns that are holding you back or creating challenges is not easy. But it can really make a difference. The issues or concerns you have may be preventing you from moving forward or from having fulfilling relationships, career or a satisfying life. Whether it's communication problems, anger, anxiety, or depression, you can make changes. Using verbal and non-verbal therapeutic techniques, in a safe, accepting environment, you can find new ways to face your concerns, and discover your strengths and resources to flourish and grow.
Sessions are interactive and offered in a person-centered approach. I work with adults, individually, as well as, couples counseling. I have experience working with depression, anxiety, life transitions, grief and loss, trauma, stress, self-esteem, and communication issues. I also offer expressive arts therapy when helpful. I also offer telehealth sessions.
Along with traditional therapy, I have over 25 years of experience with expressive arts therapy as a teacher and therapist. Sandtray, writing, art, music, drama, movement or other creative processes can assist in self-discovery and healing. I periodically offer expressive arts groups for individuals dealing with various issues.

In my work as a Person-centered therapist, I try to follow your lead as the client in terms of what you want to focus on and what methods to use that may assist you in addressing the issues you're working on. I will sometimes offer expressive arts options and processes if it seems like it might help you gain insight, release energy, and or process issues and emotions related to your concern.
