Hello and thank you for exploring and seeking out a source of connection. There is great courage in taking action toward healing, deeper understanding, and growth. I believe that within each of us there is an inner wisdom and the capacity for creativity, connection and expression.

My education includes a Master of Arts degree in Depth Psychology from Pacifica Graduate Institute and an Expressive Arts Certification from Sky Mountain Institute. I am a licensed professional counselor in Texas and Louisiana, with an active LPC license in Louisiana and practice Expressive Arts therapy anywhere.

My theoretical orientation is rooted in the study of Carl Jung and Carl Rogers, encompassing a depth-oriented and person-centered approach. I am passionate about utilizing the Expressive Arts modality – the process of creative expression utilizing art media, sand tray and other tools – to bridge the unconscious and conscious that govern our experiences. Images are psyche’s first language and act as ‘messengers’ that provide unspoken meaning to our experiences and feelings.

When given the opportunity, images provide a portal into our inner workings and convey deep meaning and symbolism. Creative imagery and expression can grant a new awareness to the conscious mind; this experiential process of insight intuitively fills in gaps and provides access to what is beneath the surface. This work is powerful and pivotal in promoting empowerment, clarity, gaining new perspectives and healing.
