Personal Statement

Through the rewarding use of the creative process to bring insight, comfort, behavioral change, maintain cognitive functioning, enrichment, and self-discovery, growth is possible. Deciding one is looking to go into therapy, and seek out counseling services is not an easy decision that people can make. I think that people should be able to have choices when seeking out therapy, which is why my practice offers both verbal and non verbal means for clients to express themselves.

My goal is professional treatment of my clients, tapping into their innate and perhaps previously unknown ability to speak through their art, in all types of media, from painting and drawing to clay, photography, sculpture and digitally through the computer. In giving my clients of all ages a new pathway to express their individuality and uniqueness through art making, we work as a team to express emotion, formulate futures, deal with the past, and fnd the inner creativity that exists in all of us.
