Biography

As a compassionate and empathic therapist with a master's degree in art therapy counseling, we can include creativity into our sessions if you are interested. We all have roadblocks along our life path and, together, we can work through your struggles and challenges. I can help with depression, anxiety, panic, self-esteem, domestic violence, women's issues, trauma, loss and grief, and understanding empathic and highly sensitive personalities among other challenges you may be navigating.

Frequently asked questions

What does our first session look like?

I prefer to initially speak with a parent or guardian at the beginning of the first session. With or without a parent, your child can then join the session. I will ask your child questions to understand how your child percieves the issue(s) they are experiencing from their point of view. I am open to the parent or guardian continuing to be in the first session, especially if your child or teen would feel unduly uncomfortable without a parent. I have great rapport with children, adolescents, and adults.
