About My Clients
Talking is not always the best approach to therapy-especially if you are someone who struggles with opening up or finding words for you feelings. Working creatively allows you to move past blocks and defenses to release old patterns and create the life you want to be living. Whether you have a specific issue, feel stuck or overwhelmed and nothing seemed to be helping, a creative approach may be key in supporting you in finding relief and accessing a greater source of healing within you.
My Background and Approach
My role as therapist includes being a guide and support on your unique journey, utilizing both creative expression and talk therapy depending on your needs and level of comfort. I believe that real change happens when we connect mind and body, and bring our imagination and playfulness to the room. With a background in theater and psychology, I realized how much they overlap, and how I used acting and my creativity to help me overcome my own mental health issues. By working creatively, we create distance between ourselves and our emotions and are then able to see our situations and real-life roles with new perspectives and understandings. As a yoga and meditation teacher, I also draw upon elements of mindfulness and body work to support the therapeutic process. Through our work together, you will gain the tools you need to explore places that hold you back, reconnect with yourself, and live a more full and joyful life.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
Creative Arts Therapy is for anyone of any background, ethnicity, or age. Through the therapeutic process, you will be invited to move beyond boundaries and stereotypes and explore labels or ideas that hold you back and prevent you from fully engaging in life.
