I have over 20 years of experience as a therapist and I am passionate about the benefits of somatic therapy and creative expression in healing. Over the past several years of my career I have been enthralled by how interpersonal neurobiology informs counselling and art therapy practice. ​I currently operate a part-time private art therapy practice in Victoria, BC. I am also a part-time faculty member with the Counselling Department at Camosun College. ​
