About Me

After receiving a Fine Arts degree from the University of Waterloo, I continued my studies at the Kutenai Art Therapy Institute where I recieved a Post Graduate Diploma in Art Therapy. 

I work with a variety of populations and am thrilled to offer healing and growth through the the creative process. I work with individuals in a one-on-one setting. I also facilitate groups where individuals can heal through the power of connection and universality. Inquire about custom workshops, Art Therapy 101 sessions, staff celebrations, staff relaxation sessions and more.

I strive to offer a safe space for individuals of all ages to express their emotions and explore their creativity through art and build skills that support their every day life. Helping you touch into your inspiration.
