Incorporating creativity into one’s life has been shown to positively affect mental health. With intermodal expressive arts, the options of creativity are as open as you need them to be. Movement, sound, visual art, and drama can all be incorporated into sessions and are often used together. I create a safe space for clients to engage in creative expressions and further deepen their understanding

Expressive arts therapy is an intermodal approach that may include movement, imagery, writing, sound, and visual art. We move between modalities based on what feels supportive in the moment, allowing experience to lead rather than forcing a single mode of expression. This approach is especially helpful if you feel stuck in overthinking or disconnected from your emotions.

Person-centered therapy is grounded in the belief that people already hold the capacity for growth and self-understanding. My role is to offer a supportive, nonjudgmental space where you can move at your own pace and reconnect with your own internal wisdom. The focus is on presence, attunement, and trust in your lived experience rather than directive advice or interpretation.

Art therapy uses creative expression—such as drawing, painting, collage, or simple mark-making—as a way to access thoughts and feelings that can be difficult to put into words. This work is not about artistic skill or outcome. It is about expression, exploration, and creating space for insight to emerge through the process itself rather than analysis alone.

Burnout can feel like emotional exhaustion, shutdown, irritability, or loss of motivation and meaning. You may identify with burnout or notice your current pace of life feels unsustainable. Many clients have been over-functioning or caretaking without enough support for a long time. We focus on slowing down, restoring nervous system capacity, and rebuilding connection to yourself without pressure to recover quickly, especially when it’s tied to long-term masking or over-functioning.

You may identify as autistic, be self-diagnosed, or be exploring whether autism fits your experience. Many clients come in exhausted from masking, feeling misunderstood in relationships, or disconnected from their own needs after years of adapting. Therapy can be a space to slow down, unmask safely, and reconnect with your internal signals. This work focuses on understanding your needs and operating in ways that actually fit you.

You may experience ADHD as overwhelm, difficulty with focus or follow-through, emotional intensity, or a sense of being “behind.” You might identify as ADHD, be self-diagnosed, or be questioning whether it fits your experience. Many people I work with have spent years masking or compensating, which can lead to burnout and self-doubt. We focus on working with your brain—not forcing it into systems that don’t fit.
