My goal is to offer clients a safe space to process emotions without judgment. I want to help clients explore their past and present stressors to overcome blockages in life.

I’m a Licensed Creative Arts Therapist and drama therapist who works with women and young adults navigating anxiety, eating disorder recovery, substance use, and life transitions.

I have experience in inpatient rehab and use a harm reduction, nonjudgmental approach. My work combines talk therapy with creative techniques when helpful—though there’s no pressure to be “artistic.”

The decision to start therapy is personal and courageous and not always easy. Everyone goes through times when they feel more stressed out, angry, anxious or depressed. It is easier for people to make transformations when they are working with a therapist that they feel comfortable with and trust. My intention is to help you identify the goals you want to work on and to help you understand what is getting in the way of achieving them. I ultimately want to give you a new perspective and look at your underlying belief systems and the repetitive patterns that have been keeping you stuck.

I’ve been honored to be providing Creative Arts Therapy within New York State for over 16 years. Collaboratively creating a reliable and insightful therapeutic realm where you feel safe to explore, process and self reflect is a primary part of my practice. Honing into your ever complexities with purpose and analytical connectedness is key to my therapeutic approach.

Do you notice patterns of behaviors that you are unsatisfied with? Therapy is a significant step towards working through and facing life's most difficult challenges. I have worked with adults, adolescents and children treating issues of adjustment, self-doubt, mood swings, trauma and anxiety attacks. When you approach the therapeutic process with curiosity, you can grow, heal, and thrive.
