I use specific techniques as needed (e.g. hypnosis, Gestalt role-playing, dream interpretation, EMDR--eye movement desensitization and reprocessing, stress management, relaxation exercises, guided imagery, visualization, art therapy, or play therapy with young children) within the context of a total treatment plan and therapeutic relationship.
I have been in professional psychological practice since 1979, been married many years, raised 2 children and shared in raising 3 step-children, so I have many years of clinical and personal experience on which to draw. However, I am always learning and growing, and enjoy sharing the journey of self-discovery with my clients/patients. I tailor my psychological treatment with individuals (adults, adolescents, and children), couples, and families to each person's unique situation. I utilize a variety of different treatment approaches, depending on the problems presented, ranging from cognitive-behavioral, insight, family systems, to supportive reality therapy.

Why go to therapy? Therapy can be an incredible tool to help guide us in any stage of life. As a therapist, I seek to create an open and trusting space for you to be heard, to better understand yourself and to develop strategies that help you to navigate life with a healthy mindset. Services are guided by your individual needs, as healing comes in many forms. The therapeutic strategies that I use are guided by a trauma informed lens that allows for the use of strategies beyond only traditional "talk therapy". Ie. somatic (body), movement, creative expression, play and much more!

It is hard to watch your child struggle to manage the weight of anxiety or when they feel "stuck" in big emotions they can’t name yet. Your child may often feel misunderstood, which might be leading to arguments or withdrawal. If you feel as though your child needs a non-judgmental space to decode their triggers and learn to self-regulate when they feel dysregulated, this is the place for them! I would love to help your child learn how to gain self-awareness, advocate for themselves, and give them the tools to quiet a restless mind at night. I would love to walk along side your child to help them achieve their goals and dreams!

How does art therapy work?
The process of making art allows people to express themselves. Art-making can take many forms, such as painting, collage, or sculpting. The therapist asks questions that the work elicits, such as how the person felt while creating their piece, or if any memories surfaced that they can discuss. The therapist will then work with the patient to process their experience, understand themselves better, and work toward change.
Does art therapy help with trauma?
Art therapy can be a valuable treatment option for those suffering from trauma. Traumatic experiences such as combat, rape, or childhood abuse can be so painful that articulating them can be too scary or painful; creating art allows people to express themselves without words, and tell their story in a different way. The physical nature of creating art can also help people feel rooted in the body, which may benefit those who feel disconnected from their body in the aftermath of trauma.
How long does art therapy last?
The duration of art therapy varies, but a common length for treatment is 10 to 15 weekly sessions. Some people may see improvement in just a few weeks, while others may choose to remain in therapy longer term. Patients should periodically discuss their goals with their therapist to make sure the two are aligned on process and progress.
What are the limitations of art therapy?
Art therapy is helpful for many people, but a limitation is that it doesn’t have as robust an evidence base as other forms of therapy, such as cognitive behavioral therapy or acceptance and commitment therapy. The evidence on art therapy is mixed; some research demonstrates its benefits, while other research suggests that it has little impact on patients.
