Together we'll set reasonable goals for our work together that focus on growth and change. My approach involves in-session exploration, processing, and interventions, as well as between-session exercises aimed to support your goals.

I have a nondirective therapeutic style. I let my clients lead what they want to explore and talk about in session. I include the creative process and art making as an important tool for self expression and explorations of emotions.
