You know the minute you walk in the door you'll be holding your breath, awaiting a cue that will tell you how bad the evening will be. You're trying to delay the yelling and screaming that awaits you- or worse, the silent avoidant treatment. Your strong-willed child will put your patience to the test the second you walk in.
Your bitterly sarcastic teenager will be hiding in their room on their phone. Your partner will be distracted and distant, avoiding your repeated concerns for the state of the family. At dinner you try to change the direction of the mood; but, everyone's day was "fine, " and no one seems to care. You are constantly walking on egg shells and trying to anticipate when the next big eruption will be.

As an art therapist, I help clients express themselves when words fail. Art is a powerful tool for n children, and clients of all ages. It can help transition a client who has plateaued in their therapeutic work, engage a resistant teen to open up, and bridge a new connection in a conflictual parent-child relationship.
As a couple and family therapist, I guide my clients to find a new understanding of themselves, and a comforting sense of connection. I offer my clients a safe and empowering space to process the experiences that have brought us together. Oftentimes people turn to therapy after experiencing pain in their lives.
