Why Choose Inner Flow
“I am not what happened to me, I am what I choose to become.”
~ Carl Jung
My approach is:
integrative
person-centered
empowering
non-judgmental
evidence-based
collaborative
I enjoy combining a variety of therapeutic modalities, giving me flexibility to personalize treatment.
Maybe you’re looking for trauma processing or release of old burdens. Maybe you feel frazzled and dysregulated. Maybe you’re navigating on-going chronic illness or life changes. Maybe you need to talk through a few things bothering you.
I’m here for all of that! We can figure out together what would best meet your therapeutic needs.
I am experienced helping
individual adult Clients work through distress associated with:
trauma
attachment wounding
chronic pain & illness
infertility
pregnancy loss
menopause transition
grief & loss
low self-esteem
depression & anxiety
life transitions & stress
Therapeutic Philosophy
When adverse experiences happen, we naturally adapt to feel comfortable and continue functioning. Sometimes those adaptations no longer work for us, and we feel unstable.
Getting to the root of distress is where we find the most relief long-term. I work with Clients to not only stabilize and ground in the present but also process the underlying layers of distress.
You can learn to listen to and feel safe in your body and your inner knowing. You can pause and adjust to feel more grounded in your authentic Self.
You can feel better. I am here to guide you.

About Art Therapy
{ Art skills not required }
Art therapy is a mental health service that can be a very insightful part of your healing.
Art therapy is an option in individual sessions and also offered in group format.
The magic of art therapy is in the art process. I have witnessed with Clients and experienced myself how art can serve as a:
conduit
for emotional expression
container
for difficult feelings and experiences
metaphor
for embracing life’s challenges
mirror
for self-reflection and insight
support
for building self esteem
Art therapy mediums can include:
air dry clay
assemblage (3D collage)
altered books
fiber arts, and more!
pencils
oil pastels
markers
watercolors
collage
Art materials are only utilized in session when the Client is comfortable doing so.
I am happy to chat about how art therapy could be incorporated into your sessions!

This therapeutic art group offers an opportunity to create a deeper connection with yourself and embody your unique strengths. It involves a combination of guided imagery, breath work, bilateral tapping, and art-making with optional reflective writing in a safe and supportive environment.
We will explore the concept of Self Energy, as defined by Dr. Richard Schwartz, the creator of IFS therapy (Internal Family Systems).
At the end of 4 weeks, you will have 4 pieces of art representing each Self quality unique to you! These art pieces are something you can keep and reflect on to connect with your Self Energy.

FAQ
-
No, it is not required, but highly recommended. The initial consult serves as a way for me to generally understand your therapeutic needs and consider if my skills and experience are appropriate. Ethically, I am obligated to only practice within my scope. If I feel your needs are outside of my scope I will provide appropriate referrals. The initial consult also offers an opportunity for you to assess fit.
-
This is something discussed with each Client at the initial intake, and is based on presenting issues, what the Client would like to achieve, and of course scheduling and finances.
-
Absolutely! We can alternate between the two and figure out what best suits your schedule. Or if you want to switch a scheduled session, that typically is not a problem. I just need a little heads up.
-
At this time, EMDR is only available via telehealth for Clients who have EMDR experience. I prefer to begin EMDR in-person until Clients are comfortable with it.
-
Yes! I am happy to offer evening sessions, which can be discussed during an initial consult and/or intake session.
-
At this time I only work with adults. I am happy to provide a referral for another art therapist who works with children and teens.
-
I do not have training in couples therapy and only work with individual adults. I can help individuals navigate relationship issues, and I am happy to provide referrals for a couples therapist.
