About Me
I am a licensed mental health therapist and registered art therapist, trained in EMDR. I use a person-centered approach that blends treatments using EMDR, art (sand tray, drawing, painting) with mindfulness, CBT, and play therapy based on the unique needs and personality of each client respectively. My specialties include trauma, chronic pain, and self-esteem, helping you break through systemic constraints to discover your inner strength.
