I created the space I most wanted to find.

Create Your Life Studio is a place where women and girls gather to be and express who they really are.

Create Your Life Studio is a place of creativity, magic, and healing.

I am a champion for women and girls!

I teach women and girls how to be their own ally.

I help women and girls re-author their stories.

I teach women and girls how to intentionally create their lives.

You have all of the answers inside of you already, let me help you uncover them by teaching you skills and practices for tapping back into your own creativity and intuition with validation and support in a safe and nonjudgmental space.

I also offer art therapy groups, workshops, and retreats where women and girls can express themselves authentically, find their inner voice, rewrite their stories, heal, and discover their real worth and value in creative and meaningful ways.

I want you to know:

You deeply matter.
You are creative.
You are powerful beyond measure.

I will help you create a new life-one that doesn't yet exist, the life you dream about.

I will help you change your old stories into new ones that you get to author yourself.

I will help you learn how to trust yourself, how to be your own ally, and how to be your own best friend.

I will help you develop a healthier relationship with yourself and others.

Many clients find that using visual language helps to access, process, and heal traumatic memories in a way that talk therapy alone might not reach.

I will teach you methods and skills to help you light a path to the future you wish to create.

Together, we will co-create an individualized wellness practice to help you create more gratitude in your life. I will help you learn to tap into your own intuition, access your wise mind, and listen to the guidance from your highest self.

I try to create an environment of safety and openness. I believe in making space for listening to women and girls that is compensatory in a culture that silences us.

I believe that art heals.

I understand the deep healing and joy that come from having a regular art practice.
I believe that our lives are influenced by the beliefs and the stories we have inherited and carried along the way, and by examining these long-held beliefs and stories, we are then able to construct new, healthier, and more empowered narratives so that we may "create our lives" with intention and meaning.
