My Ideal Client

Will be open to exploring their lived experiences, memories, and emotions to better understand themselves.

My Background and Approach

I specialize in the treatment of trauma and employ Love Ethic as my practice framework. Love Ethic, developed by bell hooks, utilizes the dimensions of loving through respect, responsibility, knowledge, commitment, care, and trust. I integrate several modalities like, DBT, CBT, and mindfulness as tools to assist in the therapeutic process. We can examine the elements of your artwork and life together to uncover unconscious patterns that may impact you in meeting your goals. My goal is to nurture a safe environment for you to explore coping skills and yourself. My sessions are grounded in compassion, creativity, and collaboration.

More About the People I Treat

I can provide mental health assessments for gender affirming surgery referral letters. I offer sliding scale for eligible clients.

Techniques I Use

Specialties

  • Art Therapy External link

    The benefits of art therapy include processing traumatic memories safely, at your own pace, through images, which can reduce their intensity. Making visible what’s inside can help validate emotions and makes them easier to understand. Regulating emotions through the creative process can help soothe your nervous system, helping with hyperarousal and emotional overwhelm. Grounding in the present, creating art forces focus on the here-and-now, which helps interrupt anxious spirals.
