As an an art therapist, I believe that healing is rooted in our creative selves.

Now, more than ever, I believe we need to spend time creating with our hands, connecting with each other, and building resilience in our communities.

I take a feminist, social justice, trauma informed perspective, focused on compassion, harm reduction and the cultivation of joy. I particularly welcome people living with addictions or in recovery, BIPOC, s*x workers, folks exploring their s*xual or gender identity, and people living with anxiety. In my practice, I centre the making of art as a place to begin; I also value the role of verbal and body-centred processing and our sessions may include all these approaches.

I will work with you to create a safe, nurturing space to learn and heal.

“While they are certainly uncomfortable, it’s important to know that intrusive thoughts don’t mean you actually want to or will do the things you are thinking about. In fact, they are usually very much at odds with who you really are - and it’s actually because you are so focused on getting rid of them that they stick around!

Somatic art therapy can provide some new approaches to managing your intrusive thoughts. The following ideas combine creativity, mindfulness and a somatic (body-focused) approach to help you manage your unwanted thoughts….”

New post on working with intrusive thoughts using art and body. Please share with anyone who might find it useful! (Link in bio)
