My Background and Education

My Background and Education

My path to art therapy is rooted in a lifelong commitment to inclusion, creativity, and equity. With more than 20 years of experience in education, I have supported children, families, and educators while advocating for responsive, inclusive learning environments. These experiences continue to inform and enrich my therapeutic work. Drawing from Feminist Studies, Psychology, Education, and Art Therapy, my practice integrates critical reflection with creative exploration.
