Let your art tell your story.
Welcome to my art therapy practice based in Ontario, Canada.
Art therapists use a variety of art materials to promote self-expression not just through words but through artmaking. I combine art processes with psychotherapy techniques to support clients as they discover personal insight, develop coping strategies, strengthen skills and express emotions.
Space to explore your inner world
Using a combination of fine art, ecological, and mixed media materials, we’ll engage in the creative process. Sometimes we’ll bring the indoors out, and other times we’ll bring the outdoors in. Working with nature is a fundamental part of my approach.

Land Acknowledgement
I live, work, and play on the traditional territories of the Haudenosaunee, Anishinabek ᐊᓂᔑᓈᐯᐗᑭ, Attiwonderonk (Neutral), and Mississauga (Michi Saagiig) people. This land continues to be home to diverse Indigenous peoples whom I recognize as stewards of the land and vital contributors of society. As a person of Irish and French ancestry, I am the great granddaughter of settlers who were uninvited guests to this land. My ancestors migrated from lands, some of which I do not have a relationship with (yet); I don’t know their cities and towns and what the sand and soil feels like. As I continue the work of understanding my family’s history, I commit to treating the places I call home with respect and care. To maintain this heart connection, I will commit to naming at least three Truth & Reconciliation actions on my learning plan each year.
