Are you looking for a creative approach to therapy? Andrea can support a wide range of issues in art therapy sessions.

If the cost of therapy been holding you back, Andrea offers affordable art therapy.

Are you feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or unsure how to put your experiences into words? Art therapy offers a different way in – through creativity, imagination, and expression. You don’t need to be “good at art.” This is about expression, insight and connection, not skill.
I work with youth (11+), teens, and adults in exploring life’s challenges through art-making. Together, through the creative process you can explore your thoughts and emotions in a safe, supportive space and begin to make sense of what’s going on inside.
I work with helping you navigate things like anxiety, depression, grief and loss, relationship challenges, life transitions, neurodivergence, creative blocks, chronic illness and spiritual/existential questions. Whether you’re navigating your own experience or supporting a loved one, you don’t have to do it alone.

I am both an artist and an art therapist-in-training, and creativity has always been central to how I understand the world and myself. My own art practice has been a powerful way to process my life experiences, and I bring that lived understanding into my work with you.
Before training in art psychotherapy, I had a long career as a designer and business owner. My background, combined with my current clinical training, allows me to bring both my life experiences and a deep curiosity into the therapy space.
Outside of my practice, I enjoy time with my two teens, quiet moments knitting or reading, hiking in nature, and the occasional spontaneous dance party or car karaoke.
Our sessions are shaped around you. I offer both structured approaches – such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) art therapy – and open, exploratory art-making, depending on what feels most supportive for you.
My approach is client-centered, collaborative, and trauma-informed, with a focus on helping you feel understood, supported, and more connected to yourself.
I aim to help you build:
 Emotional insight
 Self-compassion and self-confidence
 A stronger sense of agency
 Tools to navigate life’s challenges
