My Approach to Helping

Are you:
- Fighting anxiety/depression?

- Tired of feeling sick and tired from living with a chronic illness?

- Stuck in the pain of childhood sexual trauma?

- Battling an eating disorder?

- Overwhelmed with grief and loss?

I have over 23 years of experience helping people feel better. My therapeutic style is non-judgmental and practical. My clients often say that they feel comfortable with me, making it easier for them to explore their pain, personal issues, and find the relief or answers they are searching for.

My task as a therapist is not to 'fix' you but to provide a therapeutic relationship and a safe place where you will be heard, acknowledged, and validated. I believe that you can live life more fully as the individual that you are truly meant to be.

Specific Issue(s) I'm Skilled at Helping With

I specialize in using art therapy in the treatment of PTSD and childhood trauma. Traumatic experiences are imprinted in the brain in such a way that they are not easily accessed through language. Art therapy is helpful in uncovering, expressing, and managing traumatic memories and feelings.
