About My Clients
I routinely work with individuals and families to resolve trauma, grief, and loss, establish appropriate decision-making skills, and address depression, anxiety, and life transitions. I meet the client where they are and not where someone else wants them to be. Sometimes life's presenting issues may feel like a stormy sea, with winds howling and waves surging on the surface. Although the deeper you venture beneath the surface, toward your core, the calmer it becomes.
My Background and Approach
Thirty years ago, when I started my journey as a healer, I developed a deep passion for this work. I am just as passionate today as I was then. I work from the Person-Centered therapy approach to empower you to acquire a new layer of understanding of who and where you are. Peeling back the onion as you uncover new layers of your inner self. I am impassioned about helping clients foster self-awareness and gain insight into their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors by using art to access different areas of the brain than those used for speaking. I will support you to find the best course of action as we continue navigating, exploring, and understanding self. Art Therapy is an excellent means of enhancing self-expression, transposing coping skills, and understanding stress management techniques by adapting alternative choices. The work that we will embark upon will focus on targeting and relearning ineffective behaviors, habits, and belief systems.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
I believe that every individual has the ability to change the course of their own destiny and heal. Changing the thoughts and values that do not improve our lives or expand our minds and replacing beliefs, behaviors, and values that are hindering our development with positive ones will benefit us.
