Therapy for Women

You’re at a point in life where you feel ready to work on yourself. Despite what’s happened to you in the past, you’re ready to move forward and heal. You’re intrigued by implementing creative expression, and you’d like to work with a therapist who can help you harness your truest and most authentic self.

It is my honor to provide depth-oriented, creative-based therapy for my clients. I draw from a variety of experiential techniques to help you cultivate insight and work toward goals to bring you meaningful change in life.

Creative Expressions In Therapy

Although many people think of talking and listening when they think about therapy, there can be so much more to this unique process. My clients often find that tapping into their creative selves allows them to cope with their difficulties and feel more empowered.

Dreamwork

Your dreams can reveal valuable information about your desires, needs, and struggles. Dreamwork is an umbrella term that refers to exploring and diving into your dreams. With this intervention, I don’t assume an expert stance. Instead, we’ll both get curious and make reflections together. I may also encourage you to draw your dreams.

Imagery

Imagery (also known as visualization) encourages you to focus on specific images that promote a specific kind of emotion. This also helps activate the mind-body connection, which can be an important part of your healing process.

Creative writing

Many people find that it’s easier to express themselves through writing than talking. In therapy, we may incorporate journaling, poetry, and other written exercises intended to help you develop a deeper sense of introspection.

Narrative therapy

Narrative therapy is a type of therapy that facilitates you to rewrite your own life narrative. In this work, we’ll deconstruct your stories to gain more clarity, and we’ll work through patterns that feel stuck or unhelpful. Narrative therapy can be especially helpful for women with histories of trauma, attachment wounds, grief, or depression.

What to Expect In Our Creative Journey Together

My approach to working with clients is gentle and compassionate. I strive to build a heart-centered connection that prioritizes our therapeutic alliance above all us. I deeply respect your trust and will honor our relationship in everything I do.
