I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor and Expressive Arts Therapist in the states of Massachusetts and North Carolina. My vision is to support my clients using an integrative approach of both traditional psychotherapy alongside expressive arts and other body based therapies to address life’s challenges of varying degrees.
I've had great success supporting clients who have experienced anxiety, depression, and trauma specifically as it relates to systemic oppression.
I have served cross culturally both in the states as well as overseas with the interdisciplinary art forms of music, dance/movement, visual art, drama, poetry and traditional art forms.
Is talking through an issue challenging for you? Let the arts do the talking. Looking forward to creating a space for you to lead me through your life’s journey where you feel both validated and empowered.
I look forward to providing you with the support that you are worthy of!

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
