About

When someone is struggling with today's news and events, processing a difficult upbringing, facing the challenges of education, or wrestling with their identity, words often aren’t enough to express what they feel inside. That’s where art therapy and talk therapy come together – helping people explore and express emotions and experiences that go beyond what language can capture. If you choose to try art therapy in your sessions, you may find that thoughts and experiences you have kept hidden in your mind and body will unconsciously reveal themselves and be addressed in sessions. I am well-trained in both art and counseling, and I help clients use imagery, symbolism, and creative expression to uncover meaning and insight. The creative process often reveals nonverbal cues and metaphors that can deepen understanding and healing. You don’t need to be an artist to benefit—just be open to exploring another way of communicating.
