meaning and
purpose in your
life. Whether your needs are for brief, solution-focused
counseling or
more intensive therapeutic treatment, the process is person-centered
and
strengths-based. My philosophy integrates the physical,
psychological
and spiritual dimensions of your life in a holistic manner. Trust the process! For children, art-making is used as a springboard for teaching multiple skills including impulse control, social skills, decision-making and problem-solving. Creating art breaks down barriers to interpersonal connections while facilitating interactions, a significant benefit for special-needs individuals. The therapeutic use of art-making can increase awareness of self and others, inspire communication of issues and emotions, and enhance cognitive abilities. Adults engage in the creative process to shift the way they respond to challenges and work through personal issues. Unique strengths and resources emerge as they explore, discover, and relate through art-making. Weekly individual sessions are available for ages 5 through adult. One or two-hour sessions are offered for adolescents and adults, while forty-five minute slots are most appropriate for children.

![]() I'll
never forget an exasperated client's pleading,
"I just want someone to tell me who I am!" So many others have
mirrored that sentiment ...searching for self. Well, the creative
process
will inform you. I believe that we all know who we are, what we
need and
what we should do to be the best we can be. My task is to help
you access
and then practice that knowledge. Creating draws information from
deep
within, from your unconscious thoughts and genuine
feelings.
