I provide a warm, supportive, nurturing, and reflective space for clients to explore unresolved pain. With humor and compassion, I help clients address issues of shame and abandonment, as well as co-dependency and core self-esteem issues. I have over twenty years of experience in art, self-discovery, therapeutic growth and recovery. I enjoy combining my greatest passions: psychology and art and employ non-traditional and alternative methods of healing (including Dreamwork & Guided Meditations). As Jungian Analyst, James Hillman espoused, “The purpose of therapy is to keep the imagination alive.” I will help you explore the depths of your soul as we uncover self-sabotaging patterns and help you learn to live abundantly – with meaning and purpose.

By helping you increase awareness of suffering and learning to accept it as something necessary for personal growth, and ultimately, spiritual enlightenment, I will help you learn to be present with more joy, appreciation, and gratitude. Learning to love your human experience, while in relation to your spiritual path, is an enlightened space for all those who seek it.”
