Great to meet you!

I’m a Licensed Clinical Art Therapist and a graduate of LIU Post’s Clinical Art Therapy and Counseling Master’s program. Over the years, I’ve had the privilege of working with children, adolescents, adults, and seniors in a variety of settings, including inpatient psychiatric hospitals, outpatient clinics, and day programs. I’ve supported individuals both one-on-one and in group settings, helping those navigating challenges such as anxiety, depression, trauma, self-harm, identity, low confidence, traumatic brain injuries, dementia, and Alzheimer’s. I have also done a lot of work with couples and families to improve overall communication, conflict resolution, and relationship dynamics.

I have written two books focusing on the holistic management of stress, anxiety, and depression. My goal is to help individuals realize how capable they are of improving their reality. While also providing understanding and empathy that it isn’t all that easy.

My approach to therapy

I take a Humanistic approach in my work, allowing each session to be guided by the individual’s unique needs. I understand every individual is different and I keep that in mind to make sure I can best support you get to where you want to be.

Some of the main modalities I draw from include Art Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction. I deeply believe in the healing power of art and the importance of self-expression. Through art therapy, I’ve seen how clients can explore their emotions in a visual way, experience self-discovery, build coping skills, and overcome challenges—all while feeling unconditionally supported throughout the process. Art is not something we have to utilize throughout treatment, however it’s always an available option.

What you can expect from me

My main goal is to help support you in navigating life and becoming the version of yourself you ideally want to become. I know how stressful life can become, and how alone we can sometimes feel in it. I hope to help empower you to feel less alone and trust in yourself while navigating life’s hardships and celebrating your wins.
