The best matches for my services are individuals with a desire to embark on a journey of self-discovery, healing, and personal growth with honest and candid reflection. I understand that life's challenges can sometimes feel overwhelming, and seeking support is a brave and important step toward finding balance and well-being. My practice is dedicated to providing a safe, confidential, and compassionate space with an anti-oppressive, culturally humble perspective.
Specialties
Eclectic Humanistic Talk Therapy I believe in the power of authentic and collaborative relationships as the foundation to provide trauma-informed care that recognizes the impact of past experiences on your present well-being. Our therapeutic work will focus on building resilience, empowering you to heal, and tapping into your inherent strengths. I am trained in a range of therapeutic intervention styles, such as Solution-Focused Therapy, Psychoanalysis, EMDR, and more.
Though many therapists will say they use "art therapy" in their treatment, it takes specialized training to call oneself an Art Therapist and register with the ATCB. This distinction identifies me as uniquely qualified to use art making and creative interventions with advanced knowledge of the creative process, evidence based interventions, and honor for your expressive voice in your journey to self discovery and growth.

I am trained in EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing) techniques, which allows me to provide basic EMDR services for phobias, self discovery, and trauma work via telehealth services.
