Expressive Art Therapy for
Trauma Healing with Heart
Welcome
Creative Soul!
If you’re wondering whether art therapy for trauma can help you heal in ways that words alone haven’t, the answer is YES!
As a Latinx Expressive Art therapist with 15 years of experience, I've worked with many people who felt like something was missing, even after trying traditional therapy. You might be feeling that too.
Maybe you've tried talking through your trauma, anxiety, or that persistent feeling of "not being good enough," but you still feel stuck in familiar, unwanted patterns. Or perhaps you're ready to stop playing small and finally go after what you really want.

Your intuition led you here for a reason.
YOU CAN TRUST WHAT YOU ARE SEEKING IS WITHIN REACH.
My approach embraces your entire being: body, mind, and spirit. I specialize in art therapy for trauma, using expressive arts to help you access deeper layers of healing. And the beautiful thing is that the expressive arts blend seamlessly with other holistic trauma healing modalities I offer, like Brainspotting, EMDR, Parts Work, and Somatic therapy.
And here's what I want you to know. You don't need to be "artistic." You just need to be willing to trust what wants to emerge.
