"Helping You Live Life in Color"
In my 15 years of experience as a therapist, I’ve learned that true healing often comes when we are given a compassionate, understanding space to explore our inner world. I specialize in creative arts therapy, EMDR, and Internal Family Systems (IFS) to support clients in navigating anxiety, trauma, life transitions, and self-esteem challenges.
As a Licensed Creative Arts therapist (LCAT) and board-certified Art Therapist (ATR-BC), I’ve had the privilege of working with adults, adolescents, and children, helping them express emotions when words alone may not suffice. I believe in meeting you where you are, at your own pace, and gently guiding you toward greater self-awareness and healing. My approach is rooted in empathy and respect for your unique journey.
Whether you’re facing stress, trauma, behavioral issues, or life changes, I’m here to offer support that is grounded in understanding and care. If you’re ready to start your healing process, I invite you to reach out. Together, we can create a space where you feel seen, heard, and empowered to move forward.

How May I Help You?
“Sometimes we struggle to cope with life’s challenges and may not know how to verbalize what we need. In these moments, art can be a powerful conduit for expression and healing. Through creative exploration, I support clients in gaining insight, processing emotions, and learning to live life in color—with vibrancy, authenticity, and hope.”
Individual Therapy
Tailored treatment to meet clients individual needs. I often combine Art Therapy, EMDR, and Internal Family Systems through a humanistic lens to help clients heal in ways that feel grounded, intuitive, and deeply personal. This approach respects both the complexity of our inner world and the creative strength we all carry.
Couples Therapy
Using a client-centered approach—which emphasizes empathy, collaboration, and respect for each person's unique perspective—I work with couples to explore and strengthen communication, conflict resolution, and problem-solving skills. I utilize both talk therapy and art therapy techniques to create a supportive, creative space for growth and connection.
EMDR Therapy
This integrated approach has helped my clients, deepen the healing process. Combining Art Therapy and EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) can be an innovative and effective approach for processing trauma and emotional distress. Both techniques are focused on helping individuals heal from past experiences. Art therapy allows for creative expression, while EMDR targets trauma through bilateral stimulation to reprocess disturbing memories.
IFS Therapy
Combining Art Therapy with Internal Family Systems (IFS) therapy can be a powerful and creative way to work with parts of the self, bringing awareness, healing, and integration. Both approaches have their own unique strengths, and when combined, they can create a deeper, more holistic experience for clients. Integrating these two modalities allows me to support my clients in ways that feel embodied, intuitive, and transformative. It’s an approach that honors both the complexity and the creativity of the human psyche.
