I am a Board Certified, Registered art psychotherapist and a licensed creative arts therapist in New York State. Although trained in psychodynamic psychotherapy, my approach is eclectic and incorporates various nonverbal and verbal methods within the treatment setting.
I have over 15 years of experience working with children, adolescents, and adults with various struggles, including managing depression, anxiety, life transitions, psychosis, trauma, and chronic mental illness. I offer traditional talk therapy as well as art therapy to foster insight and reflection. I have particular experience working with people who struggle to find meaning and purpose in life, as well as artists who find it difficult to reconnect with their creative process. For artists and non-artists, the creative process often aids in envisioning what changes are necessary for positive growth, and fosters the work towards understanding and knowing the authentic self.
I have extensive experience working with groups and individuals in hospitals, as well as in outpatient settings. I facilitate individual, group therapy, and family therapy sessions.
Individual and group art psychotherapy treatment and counseling services for children, adolescents, and adults are offered in my practice.
