Professional statement

I work with people whose lives are changing. They are not afraid to get creative with their therapy. They want a mental health professional who will work with them to achieve balance. They might be dealing with college, or finishing high school. They might be figuring out a job or relationship. They want to understand why things hurt so badly or why they are so anxious. My education, training and experience comes to work for them. I bring experiences as a clinician, an artist, a teacher, a daughter, a sister, a partner, a friend, and a worker into the therapeutic experience.

Because I am trained as a Creative Arts Therapist, I offer clients the opportunity to explore their thoughts and beliefs; beyond what words can describe. I bring techniques from IFS, CBT and Motivational Interviewing to the session. That means I ask good questions. We look into what has hurt you and held you back. We find better ways to deal with problems.

As a result of working with me, clients move into healthier thinking. They are heard with care, and acceptance. Their creativity is engaged as they fashion the balanced lives they want. They are calmed—or challenged, but face and move past the concerns which block them.


Message to clients

I know we are often not taught to deal with the issues which cause emotional pain. I am here to help you to figure out yourself and good ways to deal with things. In your first sessions, we will work together to figure out what you want to deal with, and paths you want to take. Clients comment on the relief that comes from creative exploration, feeling heard, and finding new approaches

As we meet, we will discuss what has shaped you, from those early years through to today. I will collaborate and support you, as you decide what we will work on during sessions. Then, we will begin the journey toward your healing.
