I’m a neurodivergent, LGBTQIA+2 expressive arts therapy coach helping adults navigate mental health challenges with curiosity, creativity, and compassion. My approach is rooted in the belief that our life experiences, when explored with openness, can become powerful tools for transformation. I blend expressive arts therapy, emotional integration and somatic (body-mind) practices to help clients break free from limiting patterns and move toward more fulfilling, resourceful ways of being.
Whether you’re facing mood disorders, trauma, or seeking personal growth, I offer a supportive space to explore these challenges through creative exploration, skill-building, and practical tools for living.
