Sometimes it feels like anxiety is so overwhelming that it fills whatever space we give it--getting in the way of the things we want to do in life and affecting what we think we are capable of. If you feel like you are quietly suffering in the back seat when you'd rather be driving, there is hope. If you notice your child's true vibrant and independent nature paling when faced with scary new experiences, change, or social situations, we can work through this as a team. I believe change is possible through developing a meaningful relationship and emotional outlet, learning about the process and patterns of anxiety, and practice.
I am a board-certified art therapist and licensed professional counselor. I specialize and am trained in anxiety and social anxiety, ASD in children, teens, and adults, depression, grief and loss, and exploring healthy relationships. I use art as a modality of therapy, allowing creativity and expression to act as another natural language in therapy.
It isn't easy to seek help--especially in this current climate, and I want to recognize you for taking the first steps. Wherever you are in this process, please do not hesitate to reach out to me. I have immediate availability for individual sessions for children, teens, and adults with daytime and some limited evening hours.
