About My Clients
Daily life can be overwhelming, especially when you struggle with anxiety, sensitivity, and self-worth. Making decisions, going to new places, and interacting with others can be highly stressful. You find yourself avoiding these situations and questioning why you can’t do the things that other people can do. You wish you had the confidence to pursue your goals without insecurity holding you back. You want to understand yourself more and feel more secure in who you are. I want that for you, too!
My Background and Approach
I identify as a Highly Sensitive Person (HSP) and I’m passionate about supporting other sensitive humans trying to figure out who they are. I am LGBTQ+ affirming and welcome people of all identities in the therapy space. Together, we will make art, talk, cry, laugh, and explore. I believe that at the foundation of good therapy is our therapeutic relationship, so we'll work collaboratively throughout the process. I’ll check in with you periodically to make sure we’re on the same page and working toward your goals in a way that feels productive for you. I strive to provide a nurturing space that allows you to explore, create, and connect with yourself and others. I'll guide you through using creativity to process your emotions and thoughts (no art experience required!). I want to hear your honest perspective and help you find your true priorities and needs. Therapy is for you, and I strive to work WITH you to meet your goals.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
Being an effective therapist means that I also make time to take care of myself. I have my own process of self-care, self-exploration, and creative expression that help me navigate the world. I value quiet time to reflect, journaling, art making, and time spent with loved ones. Outside of work, I enjoy spending quiet time journaling, watching Schitt’s Creek and The Office, sitting on the porch, and spending time with my husband and our dog. As an art therapist, I find joy in helping highly sensitive, anxious, and overwhelmed teens and young adults build self-acceptance, find their voice, and honor their needs. My office is a judgment-free space for you to delve into your healing work. I know that therapy is a vulnerable process and can feel very scary to start. All I ask is that you show up with an open mind, curiosity, and honesty. I’ll meet you the rest of the way.
