  "Some things you can talk about, for those things you can’t, let the creative arts speak for you." I work in a field that I am passionate about: Creative Arts Psychotherapy. The foundation of my approach is the sensory mechanism that allows us to be aware of ourselves, our surrounding and each other. The sensory being is expressed by our creative being. We are all creative. Our most creative ability is “adaptation”. You wouldn't be able to read this summary, take in the information, formulate your reactions, responses, and be physically comfortable wherever you are doing all of this if you haven’t been adapting all this time. I have 30 years of experience as a clinician in the mental health field; Expressive Arts Psychotherapy, non-verbal communication, trauma, developmental psychology and the sensory system. I am able to teach, train, supervise and consult with agencies and individuals working with children, youth and adults with developmental and psychiatric challenges.
