About Me
I am a maker of things. Creative actions are how I make sense of the world around me. I began my career sharing the joy of creating with others as an artist and a teacher. I often turn to art-making in moments of stress, grief, or challenge. My creative energy moves in many directions, from creating collages to building sculptures to choosing an eclectic outfit. It informs how I see the world and how I interact with those in my life, including my clients.
I am a believer in ritual and practice. Two disciplines also frame the world for me. For the past 30 years, I have had a dedicated yoga and meditation practice which helps me stay grounded and open to the ever-changing world around me. These disciplines allow for a framework that holds one in uncertain times. Ritual is the beautiful way to acknowledge change, whether losing someone we love or moving to a new city, or experiencing a joyous moment. Ritual actions deepen my connection to the everyday experience and allow me to be in my feelings fully.
I have walked the path of therapy personally and have felt empowered to step into a more authentic version of myself. I hope the same for you.
