Do you struggle with anxiety, emotional overwhelm, burnout, or feeling disconnected from yourself or others? Even if you’ve learned ways to cope, do you feel ready to process what you’ve been holding and begin healing more deeply? The clients I work best with are thoughtful, resilient individuals who want to better understand their experiences and reclaim a sense of safety, balance, joy, and meaning in their lives. Some are curious about exploring creative expression as a way to access emotions and experiences that may be difficult to talk about directly.
I am a board-certified art therapist and LPC based in Philadelphia, PA. I have more than a decade of experience providing group and individual counseling and art therapy. I am certified in cognitive behavioral therapy and am a certified clinical trauma specialist. I strive to provide a compassionate, trauma-informed space where you can feel in control.
If you're ready to take the first step toward healing, I invite you to connect with me. Together, we will explore new ways to embrace your creativity, build resilience, and foster lasting change. I hope to talk with you soon!
