In a non judge-mental and safe atmosphere, I have been proudly serving my community for over seventeen years. Confidentiality and trust is key within my private practice. I work with individuals, couples and families to achieve greater satisfaction within their lives. Understanding, acquiring and maintaining change is a major focus. Anxiety, stress, and depression are only a few issues that disturb our mental well being. While trying to be in a productive relationship, one may lose harmony. This can affect all involved, including the family unit. Appropriate communication and coping skills is another important part of my work.

As a therapist, I have helped many people achieve greater peace of mind, decrease feelings of stress, and develop more self-compassion. Life is not always easy. In fact, it can feel quite overwhelming when you don't know where to go or who to turn to for help. Maybe you feel like your past is weighing you down and you can't move forward because of unresolved problems. Regardless, I welcome you to take one step by giving me a call today. Together we will figure out the rest of the journey at a pace that feels comfortable for you.

Life can be hard…therapy helps. We experience many changes in our lifetime and all of them - whether positive or negative changes - can cause stress. As a society we are not great at acknowledging the negative or the stress that accompanies these life changes. Social media has only amplified this ever present pressure for the “perfect life.” The reality is that life can be hard and the world is not always perfect or kind. Therapy can help us to better understand the stressors in our life and develop a plan to cope with those stressors.

As I think about my journey as an artist - evolving toward art therapy and the clinical world, honing in on my definitions and applications, while recognizing art’s interventions in my own life - I realize these ideals are why I started a therapeutic private practice many years ago. Any creative process can be healing and the possibilities are infinite when blending the process with deep discussion, clinical based talk therapies, spiritual connection, life coaching and vocational services. I have made it my life's mission in sharing these tools to facilitate personal growth, positive change and reach one’s ultimate potential.
