To help you determine if my services are a good fit for your needs, I would like to share a little bit about my professional background and myself.

I am a registered, board certified art therapist. I have been a professional therapist since 1996, working with a variety of clients in outpatient settings. As an Art Therapist, I utilize art and verbal therapy to help clients create their own goals and facilitate change. My focus is on helping people work through personal challenges and painful emotions. Using art in therapy can enhance your ability to resolve conflicts, reduce stress, increase self-esteem, and achieve insight. You will address your needs in focused conversation with me, and through stimulating creative activities that promote discovery and instigate change.

I particularly love working with:

• couples
• adolescents
• individual adults
• women experiencing infertility
• issues surrounding grief and loss
• depression
• families

I am an adjunct faculty member of Marylhurst University. I am registered through the Art Therapy Credentials Board (ATCB), meaning I have been supervised for 1000 hours of professional clinical contact hours, and have passed the national board exam through the ATCB. I have completed an externship in Emotionally Focused Therapy for couples.
