About

Our invisible wounds sometimes lead us feeling overwhelmed, confused, stuck, or helpless preventing us from living the life we want to live. If you have ever felt invisible and like no one understands what you are feeling and experiencing, I am here to listen and tell you that your experiences are real and they are valid. I will work with you to create a safe, supportive, nonjudgmental, and empathetic environment to help heal your invisible wounds, make sense of your past, live in the present, and empower you to create a life worth living.

I utilize the creative process with my training in evidence-based approaches including CBT, DBT, RO DBT, and CPT. I specialize in trauma- and neuroscience-informed art psychotherapy and counseling. I work well with individuals ages 10+ and issues involving stress, depression, anxiety, adjustment, trauma, PTSD, comorbid substance use, SI, and NSSI.

There is creativity in all of us, meaning you do not need to have experience with art materials nor "be good at art" to engage in art therapy. Including the creative process in treatment can also have many unforeseen benefits. Seeking help can be hard, and I acknowledge the strength it takes for you to reach out to begin your healing process in therapy.
