• Anxiety

  Anxiety is a normal, developmental stress response that can sometimes go into overdrive, causing us to feel excessive worry and dread about our present and future experiences. I help individuals learn how to understand, manage, and work with their anxiety to live a more balanced, meaningful life. Art therapy can be especially helpful for anxiety treatment because the art process is inherently therapeutic, and the art product offers a safe outlet to support your emotions, worries, and fears.

• PTSD

  Because traumatic events are more commonly stored in the brain and body through imagery and felt sensations, art therapy is a highly beneficial treatment approach for trauma processing and healing. I work with my clients to narrate their stories through a combination of art-making and verbal communication so that a sense of repair and integration can be achieved. My approach to trauma-work comes from a model called the Three Phases of Trauma Recovery by Judith Herman.

• Eating Disorder

  I worked in a day treatment program (PHP/IOP) helping clients recover from eating disorders before launching my private practice and continuing this work in the outpatient setting. I understand that EDs are complex emotional and medical disorders that impact people's physical, social, occupational and emotional well-beings. I work with clients to define their own idea of what recovery from an ED looks like, and I utilize art therapy as a means of expression and reflection along the way.
