Through art and creative experiences, I empower people of all ages to connect more deeply with themselves and their unique learning process. Everyone can make art. I guide people through this process, helping them develop meaningful insight and move toward intended outcomes.

 

I blend Expressive Arts practices with Cognitive-Behavioral frameworks to support people in cultivating greater self-awareness, emotional intelligence, and cognitive dexterity. Over the past twenty years this work has taken on many dimensions including 1:1 support for neurodivergent children and families, program development for schools and developmental play centers, and professional development for educators.

 

With a masters in Transformative Arts and two decades worth of facilitation experience, my journey so far has evolved into a deep fascination (borderline obsession) with the intersection of the arts, human sciences, leadership and collaborative community projects.

 

Whether you are a parent, educator, fellow creative, or community leader, I know that Transformative Arts in some form holds the process and the result you are looking for. I know because unbeknownst to me, it revealed itself as the path that changed everything for me and has held remarkable results for the individuals and communities I’ve had the opportunity to work with.

 

Change is the only constant and creativity is the fuel we can produce to navigate it with grace and grit, discovering meaningful growth and joyful aliveness in the process.
