About Me

 My experience as an HCT clinician and Sweetser Affiliate, along with participating in professional development workshops, have helped provide insight and knowledge for my clinical practice. Some of the workshops I have attended are Trauma, DBT and Ethical Dilemmas. I will also continue to incorporate art into my practice. Art can be a great therapeutic tool with the right client. Counseling areas I am focusing on: trauma, anxiety, depression, anger management, mood disorders along with children and family therapy.
Though I have shifted my career path from art to counseling over the years, it informs my career in counseling. When working with clients I understand there is no set formula for helping or managing difficulties each client may experience. I use an Integrative Therapeutic approach and combine my experience and sensitivity as an artist to provide insight into seeing healthy and unhealthy patterns of thought and behavior that are unique to each client. Using the client's skills, strengths and resources available, the session are designed to help navigate the best way to create changes the client wants in their life.
