I am a licensed art therapist and mental health counselor with a direct, relational, and grounded approach to therapy. I believe people are capable of real change when they have a space that feels both safe and honest, and someone in their corner who genuinely believes they can heal and grow.

A lot of the people I work with carry this deep belief that they are unlovable, too much, not enough, or somehow stuck for good. I want to help people challenge those thoughts, understand themselves more deeply, and start building a healthier relationship with who they are.

I offer both traditional talk therapy and art therapy, and together we decide what feels most helpful in the moment. Sometimes people need words. Sometimes they need creativity. Most of the time it is a mix of both. I also value bringing families into the process when it makes sense, because lasting change affects relationships too.

Therapy with me is collaborative. We will go at your pace, but we will not stay stuck. I care a lot about helping people connect with themselves and the people around them in ways that are authentic, healthy, and real.

Outside of work, I am usually with my family living a pretty normal life. I am not a perfect parent or a “gentle parenting” social media version of a parent. I am a real person who believes growth happens through honesty, connection, repair, and showing up for each other.

You do not have to do this alone, but you also do not have to stay where you are.
