I take an integrative approach, which means I draw from a variety of evidence-based and creative methods depending on your needs and goals. Some of the approaches I use include Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), EMDR, somatic therapy, mindfulness, breathwork, and art therapy. I also incorporate techniques from DBT, EFT tapping, guided imagery, journaling, and solution-focused therapy. Not every session will include every method. We’ll work together to find what feels most helpful and supportive for you.

Art therapy is a form of psychotherapy that uses the creative process of making art to support emotional expression, self-awareness, and healing. It’s not about artistic skill. It’s about being willing to explore your thoughts, feelings, and patterns in a different way. We focus on the experience of creating, observing, and reflecting. Art therapy can be helpful at any stage of life and is especially useful for those dealing with anxiety, trauma, self-doubt, or feeling stuck. Research shows that art-making supports stress relief, emotional regulation, cognitive flexibility, and problem-solving. I had the opportunity to contribute to a feature on Psychology.org that offers an in-depth look at what art therapy is, how it works, and who it can help. Feel free to check it out for a broader perspective. [Learn more about Art Therapy sessions here →]

The length of therapy varies based on your individual needs. While everyone’s experience is unique, many of my clients notice a significant decrease in symptoms of anxiety and depression by the end of the first month. During this time, we establish clear goals and begin implementing steps toward progress. The path from there differs for each person, depending on their goals and circumstances. You’ll know it’s time to conclude our work together when you’ve consistently applied the tools we’ve developed and are seeing meaningful results in line with your goals.

We’ll discuss your goals for involving your parent or loved one in your journey. From there, we can explore options for approaching them with the idea, and ultimately having them join the therapy process. With your permission, I can reach out to your family member to invite them to participate. Keep in mind, not everyone is ready for therapy, some parents/loved ones may decline the invitation, and we respect their decision.
