Great to meet you!

I’m an author, educator, and Licensed and Board Certified Creative Arts Therapist (LCAT, ATR-BC) with 20+ years in the field. I offer a blend of Internal Family Systems theory (IFS), trauma-informed somatic therapy, attachment-informed creative art therapy, and Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT Tapping). I work with adults who are highly capable, but feel overwhelmed, anxious, emotionally stuck, or insecure, often due to significant life changes, or relationship issues. I especially enjoy working with clients who appreciate a structured process, and are open to experiential approaches that include creativity, and spiritual or mindfulness-based themes.

My approach to therapy

My style is warm, grounded, and practical. We combine insight with nervous system support so change becomes something you can feel in your body, not just understand in your mind. With guided imagery, expressive reflection, and somatic techniques we help you access clarity, anxiety relief, and deeper self-understanding.

What you can expect from me

If you’re exhausted from anxious overthinking, carrying the emotional labor in your relationships, struggling to recover from loss or heartbreak, or simply feel a restlessness in your spirit, you don’t have to navigate this alone. When you’re ready, reach out and we’ll explore meaningful goals and establish a plan for effective care.
