Personal Statement
I am an artist, teacher, art therapist, clinical counselor, and peacemaker. I hold a BA in Art Education and a MA in Art Therapy. I believe that the creative process of self- exploration and self- expression is a pathway toward self-understanding and healthy choice. I hold the belief that the simple act of creating…heals, empowers, and transforms.
I have experience with the clinical treatment of trauma, addictions, and co-occurring diagnosis. In this work, I have witnessed the importance of metaphor, imagery, and narrative to facilitate a clients deep personal validation, self-respect, resolution, healing, and transformation. Art therapy offers each individual the opportunity to uncover authentic meaning for personal challenge and individual life experience.
I am dedicated to facilitating creative processes that connects each person to living their full potential with joy and fulfillment. Ultimately your journey is valuable and full of exquisite treasure. It is my greatest joy to help you find your treasures.
