Public Speaking
I believe change starts with awareness of our thoughts- actions- and feelings. Further, understanding of how our relationships impact us. Therapy with me has splashes of humor, sparks of honesty, and sprinkled with creativity. Having a variety of ways to express yourself – verbal or nonverbal- can be essential for healing and that is what I hope my approach and speciality of art therapy can bring to you! I will support you in practicing mindfulness skills, creative art therapy tools, kick-starting pro-active changes, and growing self-love (cause you deserve it! – YES, YOU!)
