I am a trauma-informed drama therapist and mental health practitioner. I use creative, evidence-based techniques to help people better understand themselves and the situations they face. Together, we work toward a life that feels fulfilling, balanced, and true to who you are.
You don’t have to see the whole staircase, just take the first step.

As a Drama Therapist, I specialize in helping people explore their inner world and navigate life’s challenges through creative expression. Whether you’re facing anxiety, trauma, or simply feeling stuck, I use evidence-based techniques to help you gain deeper self-awareness and take meaningful steps forward.
Drama Therapy offers something unique: a way to access emotions and insights that words alone often can’t reach. You don’t need to be an artist or “creative” to benefit—this process uses creative tools like movement, metaphor, sound, or story, tailored to your unique needs and circumstances, to support your healing and transformation.
If you’ve ever found comfort in a song, connected with a character, or been moved by a piece of art, you’ve already felt how creativity speaks to us about our lives. Drama Therapy taps into that same potential to help you release what no longer serves you, reconnect with your authentic self, and create a life that feels meaningful and fulfilling.
Services
There is profound power in seeking therapy for yourself; healing and transformation start when you make the choice to search for it. Together we can work through your challenges and work towards goals that help you live a healthier and more fulfilling life.
