About My Clients
I work with children (ages 7+), adolescents, adults, and older adults. I have experience working with clients experiencing anxiety, stress, life transitions, depression, racial identity, gender identity, grief & loss, and self-esteem concerns. I am passionate about working with individuals who experience chronic illness, particularly those touched by cancer including persons diagnosed, family, caregivers, and friends.
My Background and Approach
As a culturally sensitive counselor and art therapist, I work from a humanistic approach that is strengths-based and recognizes the whole person through all their intersecting identities. To help you achieve your goals, I provide a collaborative process built on trust and tailor each session to best meet your unique needs. Approaches I often utilize include Person-Centered, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Mindfulness-based techniques. I am also professionally trained in Art Therapy. Art therapy is a practice I utilize with clients to help process difficult experiences and emotions. Art therapy involves the creative process of art-making to help clients better understand their cognitive thoughts, emotions, and experiences. I consider the use of art therapy with counseling to enhance self-exploration, reflection, and personal insight. All my clients have the option to include art therapy in our work if they would like, no prior experience with art-making is necessary.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
I believe that openness to vulnerability is where creativity and change flourish. It is my goal to help you to embrace your vulnerability and explore new possibilities to becoming your best, authentic self. I am here to witness and understand your story, while fully supporting you as a you take steps towards your journey of healing.
