As a trauma-informed art therapist based in Philadelphia, I believe healing begins with connection—to ourselves, our bodies, and the stories that shape us. My path to becoming a therapist has been guided by a deep curiosity about how creativity, embodiment, and compassion can help people feel more grounded and whole. I hold a Master’s degree in Counseling and Art Therapy and am both a Licensed Associate Professional Counselor (LAPC) and a Registered Art Therapist Provisional (ATR-P). My background includes working with individuals navigating anxiety, depression, identity exploration, and life transitions, with a particular focus on women’s issues and LGBTQ+ affirming care. In my work, I blend art therapy, somatic awareness, and person-centered approaches to support clients in finding safety within themselves and clarity in their experiences. I view therapy as a collaborative process—one that honors each person’s inherent creativity, resilience, and capacity for growth. Outside of therapy, I love thrifting and antiquing, and you can often find me curled up with a fantasy novel and my two cats, Cricket and Jerry.

What do therapy sessions with you look like?

A telehealth session with me offers the same warmth, presence, and connection as meeting in person—just from the comfort of your own space. We begin each session by checking in about how you’re feeling that day and what’s been coming up since we last met. From there, we move at your pace—whether that means talking through experiences, exploring emotions through artmaking, or using grounding and somatic exercises to reconnect with your body. You don’t need an art studio or special supplies; even simple materials like pens, markers, or paper can support creative expression and insight. I’ll guide you through reflective prompts and mindful art processes that can help you regulate, express, and make meaning of what’s emerging. My goal is for sessions to feel collaborative, grounding, and tailored to your needs—offering a safe space to explore, create, and connect with yourself in new ways.

How do you work with clients with anxiety?

When working with anxiety, I use art therapy and somatic awareness to help you externalize racing thoughts and reconnect with a sense of calm. Creative expression allows anxious energy to take shape outside of you, while body-based grounding helps regulate the nervous system. Together, we’ll develop tools to manage overwhelm and strengthen your connection to safety and self-trust.

How do you work with clients with women's issues?

In my work with women, I take a person-centered and feminist approach—creating space to explore identity, self-worth, and the impact of societal expectations. Artmaking becomes a way to rediscover your voice and honor your emotions, while somatic practices support empowerment and grounding in your body. Our sessions focus on helping you reconnect with your inner strength and authenticity.
