About My Clients
I provide therapy therapy for adolescents, adults, and elders who may be experiencing a wide range of mental health concerns including suicidal ideation, depression, anxiety, stress, and bipolar disorder. I also support artists struggling with creative blocks or other challenges that come up in the arts, from professionals to people struggling to get started. I believe what matters most about art is not whether it is 'good' but that it's there for us when we need it.
My Background and Approach
While I am new to clinical practice, my professional background is rooted in crisis counseling. I have substantial experience as a suicide helpline worker and went on to teach, train, and coach others in crisis response. I take a client focused approach to care. I seek to understand the depth and complexity of every client's unique experiences to provide them support in identifying, exploring, and working through the challenges they face. My style is person-centered and can include expressive arts therapy. I strive to help clients develop tools for coping, healing, and growth, with an emphasis on empowerment, connection, and finding a greater sense of meaning and authenticity. My work is grounded in creativity, mindfulness, and exploration of spiritual/existential concerns.
