Therapist Overview
I believe there is a wise self in all of us that finds ways to communicate distress, and we have it in us to recognize these troubling symptoms as powerful messages that can be transformed into becoming our greatest strengths. Once symptoms are recognized and patterns understood, they can illuminate a path and open the door to healing and improved function. With use of Art Therapy and narrative methods, I work with clients to externalize difficult emotions – creating a new way of thinking that facilitates the development of skills that can support individuals to navigate through life with a renewed sense of self and purpose.
