About My Clients

My clients are adult women/non-binary folx who have overwhelming, BIG emotions. They often self-identify as feeling depressed or anxious. They feel they are both not enough and too much for others. They are exhausted from feeling and thinking so much. They are upset that they're upset, and just wish they could enjoy their lives.

My Background and Approach

I am an art therapist (ATR-P) who specializes in working with folx who have big emotions. I feel labels such as "depression" or "anxiety" can be limiting, and prefer to visualize the overwhelming thoughts and feelings of my clients as a ball of tangled strings. All of the strings are factors that influence how a person thinks and feels. The strings could be childhood upbringing, current relationship strain, biochemical imbalance, past trauma, destructive beliefs, systemic oppression, patriarchy, and much more. I use art therapy to untangle the strings. We will explore who you are, what nourishes, what you value, what you want in life, and how to get there. We will heal old wounds and liberate you from destructive beliefs, behaviors, and patterns that get in the way. No art experience is required.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

I am a queer, neurodivergent human. I believe in Health at Every Size, body neutrality, and intuitive eating/anti-diet. I am committed to acknowledging and navigating the impacts of systemic oppression, privilege, and racial injustice. I want my clients to flourish and experience a well-rested, grounded, and nourished life. I believe that work begins with me being all of those things. I design my schedule, fees, and practices so that I can live a life I deeply enjoy in AND out of the office. I want to model what I believe is possible for my clients. I intentionally see only a small number of clients so that I can show up powerfully for each one. I spread out appointments so I have time to prepare for each client, ground myself, and reflect after each meeting. My schedule also allows me to show up with mental and emotional energy for the people, hobbies, and causes I am passionate about outside of work (hey, we're more than our jobs, right?).

I offer online counseling in the following states:
