LMFT, 10 years of experience
I am a licensed marriage and family therapist and registered art therapist providing telehealth services to TN and CA residents. As a practicing visual artist for 22 years I understand the psychological, emotional, financial and lifestyle challenges that creatives face in a world that prioritizes capitalism over creativity. I will help you to use your unique gifts and talents in order to live your life in the fullest expression of yourself.
I will offer a calm, compassionate and understanding environment where you feel safe to express yourself. We will work together to identify your current challenges and come up with a plan as to how to address them. I will offer solutions that you can put into practice so that you can start to feel relief as soon as possible.
My experience working in various clinical settings including hospitals, rehabilitation centers, schools and clinics has allowed me to have a strong foundation for supporting clients. My creative spirit and training as an art therapist gives me a perspective and set of skills that traditional talk therapists do not have. I offer a compassionate and safe environment that is also directive and solution focused.
Are you a creative who is looking for support? Creatives have a unique set of challenges they face and I offer the specialized support that you need. If you identify as a creative person whether you are a writer, singer, actor, visual artist, performer, musician or participate in a creative lifestyle, I can help you. I understand how difficult it can be to fully express yourself while also balancing the responsibilities of everyday life.
I believe in treating the whole person by considering how a clients overall health may be affecting their mental health. I provide psycho-education about the mind/body connection and offer insight into alternative ways of healing the mind and body.
I teach clients about the importance of being aware of their thoughts and how they can have a healthy relationship to them through a mindfulness practice.
I provide psycho-education about our attachment styles and how they affect the health of our relationships. I help clients identify their attachment style and we work together to develop a secure attachment.
I use a narrative approach to help clients understand the story that they have created and how they have the power to change their narrative. We work together to develop a narrative that allows them to be in alignment with their wants, needs and desires.
I teach clients about having compassion for themselves and others by providing a safe and compassionate space for them. We work together to build a self compassion practice that allows for a deep sense of understanding themselves.

Ceccily has been invaluable to me over the past few years. She is a discerning, compassionate and genuine listener, as well as a solution oriented sage. She has given me time and time again concrete tools I can use to get unstuck and tend to tough issues that I otherwise couldn't see the light out in. She has been the light as well as the sturdy combination of a compass, mirror and hammer that I need. Cannot thank her enough!! An absolute gem of a human and therapist!

Ceccily is great!!! I always leave our sessions with a clearer headspace and ready to take on what’s next. She offers great insight and gives me a new perspective to my problems.
