About My Clients
I work with clients who want to heal from their past, PTSD, or current life problems. We lean into creativity in some form to explore and tell their story in an empowered way using neuro-based art therapy in a cozy art studio. My clients usually have done some talk therapy or self discovery work in the part and are ready to dig deeper to build richness, wholeness and meaning. I often work with women who are ADHD and have gifting in intellectualizing and want to learn to live in their bodies.
My Background and Approach
My clients have said I have a warm, solid presence and straightforward strength that blends with my wisdom, intuition, and experience. In sessions I give clients opportunities to explore and find what art and crafting materials they like to work with. I also offer strengths-focused, art-based supervision for art therapists and my students. I am happy to offer a 15m free discovery call to answer questions you might have, and we can see where we would like to both go from there! https://arttherapyalchemy.as.me/ As a specialist provider and not a generalist therapist, I have specific advanced trainings based for working with complex PTSD with an interest in neurodivergent brains. I utilize a blend of research-based neuroscience with intersectional/re-indigenizing practices and art materials to facilitate unique processing of trauma that is both gentle and lasting.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
As a long time public advocate, I am socially conscious and am active in the social justice, racial justice, art advocacy, right to health, and LGBTQIA+ communities in various organizations and serve as a mentor to emerging artists and medical health professionals. I sit with humility and strive to be more aware and inclusive and will aways be working to understand my privileges and intersections.
