Finding the right therapist for you, or your child, is important. As a drama therapist and licensed creative arts therapist, I believe creative process is fundamental to development and well-being. Through verbal sessions, or combined with creative arts and drama therapy techniques, I provide a safe space to explore thoughts and feelings, working toward resolution at your own pace.
My approach is particularly effective with children and adolescents. Incorporating play and creative arts, I provide therapy that allows children to overcome personal issues in a safe, age-appropriate form, increasing their sense of play and coping skills for life conflicts.
I work with teenagers, understanding the complex nuances of this age, to allow them the ability to express their feelings, ambivalence and confusion around their future. With teens and adults, sessions may focus on working through underlying emotional issues, coping with difficulties and establishing goals for enhanced self-image and confidence.
I can help you evaluate various roles you play in life, positive and negative, and make desired changes to develop new roles, new ways of seeing yourself and feeling confident in life. I am LGBTQ-affirmative and support all people in their endeavors to find a happier, more complete sense of self.

I served as the vice president to the tri-state chapter of The National Association for Drama Therapy (NADT), and I am the Eastern region representative on the NADT Board of Directors.
I maintain professional memberships with the National Association for Drama Therapy, as well as the American Group Psychotherapy Association (AGPA).
