About
A safe place to explore, get messy and grow
Many of my clients struggle with overwhelming stress, self-destructive thoughts, difficulties in their relationships, and trouble reaching their daily or life goals. Often people struggle with understanding themselves, with anxiety and with depression. Leaving these issues unattended can have long-term effects on overall wellbeing.
My clients are ready to challenge themselves and commit to the mental, emotional and sometimes physical work of self-reflection and healing.
I'll help you better understand and accept yourself and your brain, with approaches that are wholistic and creative. We'll work together to identify, collaborate on and learn new skills that make life feel more manageable, and then move toward thriving.
I create a safe, non-judgmental, self-empowering space for clients to explore themselves, make mistakes, get messy and grow. I have worked with many individuals and couples struggling with negative patterns, emotional overwhelm and burnout. My passion is helping people find peace in their lives through creative outlets.
I help neurodiverse folks learn to love themselves and their brains.
Approach
Art therapy at the heart of the work
I often use art therapy in my practice. It can look like a lot of different things. It may support mindfulness practices, help you gain deeper personal insight and awareness, and give you a way to process the feelings and events in your life that have shaped you.
No art experience is needed. The point is the process, not the product.
