Wellness through Counseling in Washington DC, Maryland, and Pennsylvania

About Me

 

Having grown up multiculturally in the US and abroad, I have a great appreciation for many ways of life. I’ve always been interested in other people’s stories, and my curiosity plus life experiences greatly inform my work by reinforcing the importance of finding one’s place in this vast world.

I have a dual Bachelor's in Fine Art and Psychology from Albright College (Reading, PA). I earned a Master’s degree in Art Therapy from The George Washington University (Washington D.C.) in 2010, and worked in a variety of settings before opening a private practice in 2016. While I am licensed as a both Counselor and Art Therapist, most of my work is traditional talk therapy.

I enjoy mentoring and channel that energy into supervising newly licensed professionals, I have guest lectured and been an adjunct professor, as well as presented community workshops on mental health.

When I’m not working, I’m an avid music fan, meditation student, Stand Up Paddleboard enthusiast, Star Wars geek, dog lover (cats are welcome), and podcast listener.
