Life Transitions

My approach is compassionate and understanding, providing a space in which each person can begin to unravel the pain that has restricted their growth within a framework of psychodynamic theory and development. In our time together, you will have the opportunity to address what is of immediate concern for you, how it is affecting your day-to-day well-being, where this pattern or habit may have originated, and find ways to release and alter patterns that no longer serve you. I provide art therapy for anyone who seeks an alternate avenue for self-discovery and self-expression. Often through the use of image making, greater meaning and depth can be revealed. Verbal and traditional counseling and therapy techniques are an integral part of the work we will do together. Many times, being met in a space of understanding and compassion allows for greater self-awareness and self-care. My main focus for each individual is the evolution of the self toward wholeness through all of life's challenges.

Individual Art Therapy  / Art Psychotherapy

Art Therapy allows for the expression of feelings, conflicts and ideas through the use of art in the safety of the therapy setting. Many times we find words are not enough. Art Therapy allows for the processing of painful memories, thoughts and feelings and contains these aspects safely.
In the art therapy session, we make time for you to check in, to discuss what is most pressing, and have the opportunity to utilize art materials at the art table to further explore those ideas and feelings. Each person is unique and you will find your own way to express yourself through color, words and images. Even if you don't know how to draw, making art in the therapy session is healing, often providing greater insight and self-expression, and lessens symptoms. As you continue with art making you will find you have your own unique imagery, things that resonate and hold meaning for you.

Many people come to my practice specifically for art therapy, while others may choose to utilize it as part of the counseling and therapy session.
