My Ideal Client

I specialize in working with creative individuals, both those who have an active creative practice and those who like to think outside of the box. As a creative person your practice is an essential aspect of your healing and I center that in our work together.

My Approach to Helping

You can expect me to be kind, thoughtful, curious, and open minded. I use creativity in therapy and draw upon theoretical frameworks such as CBT, DBT, ACT, mindfulness and parts work. I know that each person navigates an intersection of oppressive systems and I give them space to bring their specific perspectives and identities into the therapeutic relationship. By honoring clients' innate resiliency and collaborating to develop relevant and effective treatment plans, I aim to meet each client where they are at and join them on their unique path to healing.

More About the People I Treat

I work with individuals who are relatively stable and able to engage in weekly outpatient therapy. I am not the best fit for those currently navigating active suicidal thoughts, psychosis, or frequent crises, and I recommend connecting with providers who specialize in crisis stabilization or more intensive levels of care.

Specialties

  • Loss or Grief External link

    I completed a certificate in trauma at Antioch University which included courses on creative approaches to trauma and grief.

  • Anxiety External link

    I have worked with many clients that face anxiety. I acknowledge that the world we live in promotes anxiety inducing behaviors and that we are all working to achieve a greater connection to the present moment. I led a meditation therapy group and include mindfulness in my individual therapy.
