About My Clients
My clients are people that are open to expressing themselves in new, and fearless ways. My clients are open with themselves and with me to discover their inner truths, and being able to access their Self & authentic energy of Creativity, Connectedness, Confidence, Compassion, and Courage.
My Background and Approach
Art is what always brought my life a purpose, but in entering the "real world", I compromised and majored in Psychology & minored in Studio Arts. I knew that I could never "make it" as an artist, and found the field of Art Therapy- which truly did best suit my authentic needs- to find my true Self, to learn the fascinations of the mind, & to deeply connect with other people and offer them support, understanding, & unconditional positive regard. I graduated with a Master's in Creative Arts Therapies in Rochester, NY in 2018 and moved back down south to be near my family and begin working. I truly have not found a client that I did not enjoy yet - I believe we all carry our authentic Selves with us, but they can get covered up by different "parts"- our anxious part, the angry part, the hurt part. My work now is focused on deeply connecting with and validating clients and their parts, and begin to discover this inner Self, as all the answers that you seek are already inside of you.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
I inherently believe that all people are born good, and different life experiences shape them into who they are. I embody the presence of unconditional positive regard - "It is that the individual has within him or her self vast resources for self-understanding, for altering her or his self-concept, attitudes, and self-directed behavior—and that these resources can be tapped if only a definable climate of facilitative psychological attitudes can be provided" Carl Rogers. I believe the psychological attitudes I provide are understanding, compassion, and grace.
