About My Clients

I work with youth and adults, including BIPOC and LGBTQIA+ communities, who are seeking a creative, compassionate way to explore their experiences with grief, anxiety, and identity. If traditional talk therapy hasn’t fully resonated with you, Art Therapy offers a different approach to express complex emotions and experiences that can be hard to put into words. In our work together, you’ll find a path toward healing, self-compassion, and a renewed sense of connection to yourself.

My Background and Approach

My approach is deeply informed by the understanding that our identities—racial, sexual, gender, generational, disability—are multifaceted and intersect in ways that shape our lived experiences. I honor all of these layers in the work we do together. My practice blends Art Therapy with counseling to help you express what words sometimes can’t capture. Art Therapy offers a transformative space where you can explore your thoughts and emotions creatively, facilitating deeper understanding and healing. In our sessions, the focus is on cultivating self-compassion. I believe that healing happens when we can approach ourselves with kindness, especially when navigating tough emotions and experiences. Together, we’ll create a space where you can be gentle with yourself, explore your feelings without judgement, and develop the tools to cope more effectively. Whether through creative expression or traditional counseling, I’ll be here to help you gain insight, build resilience, and grow.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

I believe that we all have the capacity to grow, transform, and heal—especially when we’re able to express ourselves authentically. Creative expression through Art Therapy offers a unique opportunity to explore our experiences in ways that go beyond words, acting as a language of the heart and mind that helps us connect with our inner selves for healing and self-discovery. Our identities are central to our healing process. I’m committed to creating a space where all parts of yourself can be embraced and celebrated. Everyone deserves a compassionate, non-judgmental environment to explore, heal, and grow. I'm here to support you in your journey, offering the space, tools, and compassion to help you embrace change through creativity, curiosity, and empowerment.
