How I can help

I work with adults and couples who want support with difficult experiences, emotions, and relationships. My approach is strengths based and integrative: we work together to understand what matters to you, build self-awareness, strengthen coping skills, and improve communication. My clinical background includes a focus on complex trauma, and I also enjoy working with people in music, the arts, and other creative fields.

Areas of focus

• Trauma and complex trauma
• Anxiety and stress
• Depression
• Grief and loss
• Relationship concerns
• Communication and connection in couples

Background & education

I earned my master’s degree in Art Therapy from George Washington University in 2015. My experience includes adult inpatient psychiatric care, community-based family counseling, adolescent grief support, and adult residential substance abuse treatment.

Therapeutic approach

Therapy is a collaborative space to explore your concerns and work toward goals that fit your life. We may focus on processing difficult experiences, noticing patterns, building coping skills, or strengthening relationships. Conversation is central to our work. When it fits your interests and goals, art making can be an optional part of the process; no artistic experience is needed.

Personal

In my free time, I enjoy visiting museums and seeing art from different parts of the world, working on the pottery wheel, traveling, cooking, and spending time with my family and friends.

FAQ

How does art therapy fit into our work?

Art therapy combines creative expression with reflection and conversation. You might use drawing, painting, or other materials to explore experiences that feel difficult to put into words. Artistic skill is not required, and art making is optional. We decide together whether it fits your goals. Learn more about art therapy.

Do you work with individuals and couples?

I work with adults ages 18 and older and with couples. A free 20-minute consultation by phone or video gives us a chance to discuss your concerns, the type of support you want, and whether we are a good fit.

Do you offer group events or intensives?

The practice offers private art-based workshops and speaking engagements. These are different from ongoing therapy groups. I also offer individually planned trauma intensives spanning 1–3 days. Contact the practice to discuss suitability, format, dates, and pricing.

What is your training?

My credentials are LPC/MHSP and ATR (Registered Art Therapist). I hold a master’s degree in Art Therapy from George Washington University. I offer online therapy for clients in Georgia and Tennessee, as well as in-person sessions at our Atlanta office.
