About My Clients
My practice blends traditional talk therapy, mindfulness, and the expressive arts to support and empower my clients. I have a special interest in supporting clients through burnout, including parents and caregivers, as well as other helping professionals. Life is complicated, we live with so many demands and so much stress on any given day, and we all need to have support and that safe person we can unload our concerns to and know we will always be met with compassion and understanding.
My Background and Approach
I use a gentle and authentic approach to therapy and believe in meeting each person where they are. I believe we're all inherently creative by nature, but the demands of every day life don't always leave much space for us to nurture this part of ourselves. When we give ourselves permission to be creative, we're connecting with that inner wisdom and learning again how to play, explore, solve problems, and so much more. The arts are a powerful tool that can aid in our work towards self expression and emotional healing. Creative exercises can help us explore ideas and feelings in a fresh, new way that talking can't always do. While some clients might enjoy using the arts each session, others might prefer traditional talk therapy, and that is perfectly alright; there is a wide range of possibilities for how we incorporate (or don’t incorporate) the arts into our work together.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
It’s a privilege to do this work, and I so value the energy it requires for people to bring themselves into the therapeutic space. This is why it’s so important to me that I make an effort to create a space that’s welcoming, allowing you to come as you are, and hopefully leave feeling refreshed, nourished, and heard.
