Great to meet you!

I am a lifelong artist. My first career was in the arts and led to my second career as an MFT and Art Therapist. While pursuing an MA in Marital and Family Therapy, I facilitated creative arts groups with veterans at the SFVA Medical Center. My internship was with at-risk youth at a non-public school. My experience as a trauma-informed therapist inspired me to become EMDR trained and continue the meaningful work of helping clients process traumatic experiences.

My approach to therapy

I bring warmth, compassion, patience, and creativity to therapy. My therapeutic approach is trauma-informed, strength-based, open-minded and challenging.

What you can expect from me

I provide a calm supportive space to help client’s process and heal from traumatic experiences. Clients are given the opportunity to learn skills to help cope with the challenges they face.
