I am a registered, board-certified art psychotherapist and licensed professional counselor. I specialize in working with individuals who suffer from depression, anxiety, post-traumatic stress and eating disorders. While not all of my clients use art making in session, I have found that when it is hard to talk about pain, a picture is worth a thousand words. Art psychotherapy requires no skill or artistic background, and can offer you a chance to express yourself in a new and transformative way. My approach combines art psychotherapy with elements of mindfulness and DBT. I draw from additional training in contemplative psychotherapy and polyvagal theory. I endorse a holistic treatment model that honors whole-body wellness and I encourage a community-supported recovery plan. I am able to function as a primary therapist or provide adjunct therapy services to individuals who would benefit from the addition of the unique modality of art psychotherapy.
