I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and a Registered Art Therapist, Board Certified. I view therapy as a creative process that promotes self-expression to aid clients in moving through blocks and to work towards achieving their goals. I meet my clients with empathy and compassion and work collaboratively to identify treatment priorities. The treatment modalities I use are art therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavioral therapy (consists of a skill set combined with mindfulness focused on helping clients gain more control of their emotions), psychodynamic therapy, and trauma focused CBT. I view my clients from a compassionate, interactive and nonjudgemental perspective. I highlight my client's strengths and resilience and support them in moving through challenges as they take baby steps towards their goals.
