Hello, I’m so glad you’re here!
I'm passionate about guiding individuals on their journey towards healing and self-discovery. As an art therapist, I believe in the transformative power of creativity to help people of any age express themselves and navigate life's complexities. You don’t need to consider yourself to be an artist to find benefit in creative healing. I will work with you to introduce artmaking that meets your unique needs. Alongside art therapy, I also offer traditional talk therapy, providing a holistic approach to mental and emotional well-being that can be best catered to your specific therapeutic needs.
In my practice, I prioritize a person-centered and existential approach, recognizing that each person is the expert of their own experiences. I work with children, adolescents, and adults, understanding that therapy knows no age limit. Whether supporting a child through developmental challenges or helping an adult navigate life transitions, I tailor my approach to meet the unique needs of each individual. I strive to create a warm, non-judgmental space where clients feel safe to explore their thoughts, feelings, and concerns at their own pace. In addition to being an art therapist, I am pursuing my license as a licensed professional counselor and board-certified art therapist under the supervision and direction of Nancy Morales, LPC, ATR-BC, CPCS and AICC Clinical Director, Christi Bartolomucci, PhD, LPC, CPCS.
I have experience working with children, particularly within the private school setting, and adults in a wide range of areas. My areas of specialty include ADHD, ASD, anxiety, depression, perfectionism, chronic illness, grief, loss, behavioral issues, personal growth, relationships, social skills, life transitions and navigating life changes, such as impacts of divorce or career shifts. Additionally, I specialize in identity work, helping clients explore and embrace their authentic selves. As a queer-affirming therapist, I am committed to creating an inclusive environment where LGBTQ+ individuals feel accepted and valued. I celebrate the diversity of human experience and aim to provide affirming care to all clients.
In addition to my general practice, I have a special interest in sex therapy for adult clients. I believe that healthy sexuality is an integral part of overall well-being, and I offer a compassionate space for clients to explore their sexual concerns and desires without judgment.
Above all, my goal is to empower clients to lead fulfilling lives and embrace their true selves. With kindness, warmth, and genuine care, I am here to support you on your journey towards healing and growth.
