Our Story
Hello!
I founded Peace of Art Therapy to create a space where I could integrate all of the healing modalities that I offer. With over 20 years in the mental health field, I’ve learned that true healing goes beyond words - it isn’t linear - and it isn’t one-size-fits-all.
I blend evidence-based psychotherapy with holistic and somatic approaches, meeting you where you are and developing a unique plan together. Throughout my own healing journey, I have benefited from every service that we offer - and I’m honored to share these transformative practices with you.
I am a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor and a Board-Certified Art Therapist. I earned my Bachelor’s degree in Psychology with a minor in Art from the University of Tampa in 2004, and a Master’s degree in Art Therapy and Clinical Counseling in 2008.
Since 2011 I have been in private practice, providing treatment to adults and children who are navigating trauma, depression, anxiety, and bipolar disorders, with a specialization in childhood trauma, sexual abuse, CPTSD, and attachment wounds.
I also provide on-site group and individual services to underserved populations, such as survivors of domestic violence, sexual assault, human trafficking, and homelessness.
My therapeutic style weaves together science, soul, creativity and laughter. I use trauma-informed, attachment-focused, and strength-based approaches, blending talk and experiential methods. Drawing from the latest neuroscience, each session is personalized to guide you toward peace and mind-body connection.
I’m currently practicing EMDR under consultation while completing training in an EMDRIA-approved program (expected completion February 2026). In addition to my clinical endeavors, I’m certified in Thai yoga massage (2018) and currently completing a 200-hr yoga teacher training program (expected completion February 2026).
I look forward to connecting!

Independent Wellness Practitioners:
Peace of Art Therapy also hosts a community of independent wellness practitioners who offer additional services from the same space. Each practitioner brings their own unique expertise, creating opportunities for you to explore healing in a collaborative and integrative environment.
Once you begin working with these practitioners, you will schedule and pay directly with them. This allows for individualized care while maintaining the flexibility and autonomy that support meaningful therapeutic work.
At Peace of Art Therapy, every element - from the atmosphere to the services offered - is designed to help you find peace, clarity, and resilience through whichever methods best support your personal journey.
We currently have two independent wellness practitioners who offer:
Thai Massage, Reiki, and Private Yoga/Meditation Instruction.
