I am a New York State licensed and board-certified creative art therapist providing treatment for young people and adults. My approach is strength based, client centered and deeply grounded in the restorative power of the creative process. A strong therapeutic alliance fostered through trust, understanding and collaboration is essential in cultivating positive change. I deeply value the use of art making to facilitate authentic self-expression, increase self-awareness, and promote self-acceptance. “Art is a way of recognizing oneself...” -Louise Bourgeois
Having worked in New York City’s public schools and residential treatment programs since 2011, I have extensive clinical experience supporting children and families. My experience includes working with people who have experienced trauma, loss, anxiety, depression, relational difficulties and poor self esteem.
It goes without saying that you do not need to identify as an artist to experience art therapy because we are all capable of expressing conflict creatively and moving towards a more integrated and healthy way of being. Please reach out to me if you are interested in connecting and we can set up an initial consultation.
