Expressive Arts
Expressive arts is the base of my work. I believe art to be the language of the soul and the heart. Art is spontaneous and genuine, it communicates what sometimes we cannot or do not know how to say otherwise.
Creativity represents the breaking of limitations. The symbols produced through expressive arts have life. They reach dimensions that rational knowledge cannot reach. They convey highly stimulating intuitions.
Individual Therapy
There are times when we feel afraid, lonely, unease or going through important transitions that bring ambiguity, doubt and/or grief.
In counseling, I will provide a welcoming and warmth place and hold space for you to gently explore the suffering and anguish, its finitude and the impact of interpersonal relationships. My role is to shine a light on the darkness and walk with you on your journey of self-understanding, self-reconciliation and self-acceptance.
Therapy is unique. It’s a time where you can pause for a while and look inside yourself. It’s a time to question life, choices, who you are in the world, and maybe even change something. It is an invaluable time to explore pain and love.
Play Therapy
The act of play is the children’s language. The toys are their words. Play helps the child understand their world, their life, and themselves. My goal is to assist each child in expressing their emotions. Through play they can express their accumulated feelings of tension, frustration, insecurity, aggression, fear, amazement, confusion and re-signify traumatizing events.
I trust that children are capable of directing their own process and that they have within themselves the power of healing.
Family Therapy
Family Therapy can be an excellent alternative for families that are experiencing moments of conflict and disharmony. Its main objective is to assist the family in achieving or regaining harmonious, respectful and healthy relationships among its members.
