About

Hi and welcome! The clients that I help may be starting to undo their inner people-pleasers. They have been taught that they are not enough, or are too much. That their needs somehow don’t matter as much. They get in their own way, don’t live in accordance to their values, and ruminate on every perceived mistake. They worry about being a burden or an inconvenience to others. They have a wounded inner child. Many of my clients are survivors of narcissistic abuse, struggle with addictions or self-harm, and struggle with just being nice to themselves. Sound familiar? You may not see it now, but you are worthy of the life you dream of!

I am a registered, board-certified art therapist. While art might not be a part of everyone’s treatment, alongside mind-body practices, it can help us express ourselves where words fail us, unlock deeper meanings, and sometimes just play! Through the process of art making, you can regain your power, and give yourself the same care you so readily give others.

As your therapist, I approach my work as a human first. I value a connection built on trust, empathy, compassion, and a whole lot of humor. If you are ready for a change, want to step out of your comfort zone and finally begin to be kinder to yourself, I encourage you to reach out for a consultation! We can decide together whether this is a good fit.
