Are you looking to connect to your authentic self? So many things in our life can disconnect us from listening to or even hearing our internal guidance. Other people's expectations, loss, trauma, work and family demands, etc. Perhaps you're looking for a sense of direction, to rebuild your life after a major loss, or to rediscover yourself now that you're safe from an abusive relationship.

Connecting to your intution and creative impulses through visual art material or selecting and arranging figurines in a tray of sand can be powerful ways of connecting to your inner wisom and making sense of what you've been through. I provide a compassionate, non-judgmental, trauma-informed space for you to feel seen.
I offer virtual one-on-one art therapy and psychotherapy for adults across Ontario, and sandtray therapy in person in Ottawa. The first step is to book a free 15 minute video call to see if it would be a good fit to work together. (343) 305-1143 [email protected] |

MY APPROACH
Like a plant reaching roots into the darkness underground and stretching its leaves towards the sun, I envision the healing and growth process as a balance between fostering strength and a vision for what is possible while acknowledging, feeling, and finding ways to cope with challenging emotions and experiences.
Everyone’s healing journey is unique and may need something different at different times, so there are many approaches that I draw upon. I'm interested in incorporating elements of self-compassion, parts work, positive psychology, solution-focused brief therapy, and of course, the power of visual art and sandtray therapy.

Virtual Art Therapy & Psychotherapy
Virtual one-on-one art therapy and psychotherapy sessions can involve just talking or barely any talking at all, depending on your comfort level and needs. Keep in mind that you do NOT need to be an artist to take part in art therapy.
Virtual sessions are currently available to individuals across Ontario. ($140 for a 50 minute session)
- We can collaboratively create space for you to share what's on your mind and speak your truth in a supportive, validating environment.
- You can make art focusing on topics such as safety, mindfulness, or a theme related to your goals. We can chat or remain silent while you create, and then we can reflect on the artwork through writing or discussion.
- I can make art in response to what you've shared or alongside you
