Great to meet you!

As a Licensed Professional Counselor, Registered Art Therapist, and Registered Expressive Arts Therapist, I enjoy helping clients heal from trauma as they discover and trust their own inner voice. Often times we lose our ability to speak our own needs and establish boundaries following a traumatic experience. We tend to not trust ourselves or others.

A bit about my approach to therapy

My approach to therapy is encourage client's to begin a therapy using Visual Journaling, a combination of visual arts and written journaling, to express both thoughts and feelings. This allows client's the opportunity to explore day to day worries and stressors before beginning trauma-focused therapy. Negative thoughts can be replaced through the lens of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy.

What you can expect from our first session

Clients can expect to be heard and seen following each session, in a non-judgmental supportive space.
