I hold a BS Degree in Human Development and Family Studies from Cornell University and an MA in Art Therapy from NYU. I am licensed by the State of NY and nationally Board Certified by ATCB. Fluent in Italian; Certificate in Trauma and Creative Arts; IFS-informed, post-Master's level trainings in CBT, Sensorimotor Psychotherapy and IMAGO relationship therapy. 20 years experience with people from 3-99. Creative, empathic and client-centered, your treatment will be as unique as you are.

Our life experiences are a combination of what we sense through our physical bodies, how we experience and express our emotions and how we make sense of it all. Using the arts together with traditional talk therapy creates greater insight into ourselves. In our Creative Arts Therapy sessions, we will include experiential modalities like drawing or painting, collage, writing and breathwork to access right brain experience. We will understand our unique nervous system response. We will express our emotions. Then we can use left brain processes to understand where we are now and where we want to be. Therapy focuses on what you are willing and able to do in order to make the changes you wish to see.

Greater self awareness and understanding of current relationships. An appreciation for your own unique qualities, strengths and challenges. Tools to reduce stress and increase mindfulness. A deep dive into your own creativity.
