You've spent a long time holding it together. Maybe you're moving through a loss, a transition, or a season that's harder than expected. You're here because part of you is ready to look closer.
I work with women who are thoughtful and open to doing things differently. We'll use a combination of art and talk therapy — not because you need to be an artist, but because the most honest part of us often shows up on the page before it finds words.
If you're curious, that's enough to start.
I offer a compassionate, creative space to process what's hard. Using art therapy in a person-centered, integrative way, our time together is designed to be both meaningful and effective.
Whether you're ready to take action now, or just starting to consider if therapy is right for you, the process has already begun. You being here, reading through this page, is evidence that you're on your way to healing. I'm glad you're here.
