I hold a dual degree as a Registered Art Therapist and Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor. I work with clients not only to verbally express themselves but also creatively. I believe in meeting each client where they are at, and using the most effective treatment modality in order to help you achieve your personal goals for treatment. Art therapy is a great therapeutic tool to help you gain a deeper understanding of yourself. No previous experience in art is necessary. I do not interpret art but ask you questions to reflect on the images. I also work with clients using response art in treatment in order to achieve self-reflection and awareness. With 12 years of experience, I also provide talk therapy if you are not interested in art therapy. I specialize in helping people with life adjustments/transitions, work-life balance, and self-esteem/self-awareness work. If you are interested in creating a happier and healthier life for yourself I am available and accepting new clients. I look forward to meeting you and working with you! Please note that on the calendar to schedule with me there may be limited time and day availability or times you feel may not work for you. Upon scheduling, I am open to flexible scheduling with clients and we can adjust to other days or time frames after the initial scheduling occurs for future sessions.
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
Clients can expect to gain psychoeducation to understand diagnosis and ways to manage symptoms as well gain more insight, self awareness, and self compassion.
What treatment methods and tools do you utilize?
Each client is unique, and comes in for all different reasons, therefore I utilize an eclectic approach that incorporates various therapeutic theories and techniques to meet each client where they are at. I also use CBT, Narrative therapy, solution focused, and art therapy.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
Some of my strengths are helping people to be heard and feel seen. I respect and honor the space clients give me to open up about themselves and their lives. I help clients to reach their personal goals to live a happier and healthier life.
