I am an art therapist, passionate and dedicated, on a transformative journey to help neurodivergent, LGBTQ+, and grieving adults discover their authentic selves through the power of art therapy.

By blending artistic creation with therapeutic techniques, I offer a unique pathway for healing and self-discovery encouraging each person to embrace their true essence amidst life's challenges.

People are hurting and need connection with others to heal. Sometimes that connection can feel scary and overwhelming. Sometimes the very people who were the ones supposed to provide that connection actually caused the injury. Vulnerability to healing from depression, anxiety, trauma, grief, and general life stress can seem like a daunting task.

Imagine living your best life! We all face challenges and difficulties in life. For some it is trauma, others experience chronic health issues, not to mention day-to-day stressors of society's unrealistic demands and expectations. No one goes through life without experiencing the struggle. Our time together is spent exploring what is in the gap between where you are and where you desire and hope to be. Our time together is spent exploring what is in the gap between where you are and where you desire and hope to be.

People who work with me tend to go beyond just feeling better after improving whatever initially brings them to therapy, such as: stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, attachment & relationships, thoughts, emotions etc. Overcoming that stuff is really just the beginning of the process of becoming your potential. If you desire freedom and a deepened connection to your Self & others, I can guide you to unlocking the chains you didn't even know were holding you back. You can be in the drivers seat again, not your thoughts, fears, or symptoms.

Somatic Therapists
How does somatic therapy work?
Somatic therapy is a form of treatment that focuses on how the body and mind are interconnected. In this approach, physical symptoms are addressed because they may in fact signal emotional distress. Somatic therapists combine mindfulness, talk therapy, breathwork, yoga, dance, and physical manipulations of the body to help patients become more attuned to what their body is telling them.
Is EMDR a somatic therapy?
EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) is a form of somatic therapy, as it incorporates mental and physical principles. EMDR involves remembering a traumatic experience while allowing one’s eyes to track a side-to-side visual stimulus from a therapist. This lateral eye movement is believed to diminish the painful power of the memory so that it can be discussed with a therapist.
Is somatic therapy evidence-based?
Somatic therapy has been researched and studied, and some forms of somatic therapy are found to be effective in treating a wide range of conditions. Because somatic therapy encompasses many techniques, some, such as EMDR and meditation, have been studied more than others.
What is somatic trauma therapy?
Somatic trauma therapy is based on the idea that when people experience trauma, they can become stuck in the “freeze” part of a “fight, flight, or freeze” response. In this state, trauma can manifest itself both mentally and physically—through tension in the muscles, anxiety, and stress. Popular forms of somatic trauma therapy include EMDR, sensorimotor therapy, and somatic experiencing.
