Draw Within Counseling

welcome to Draw Within!

Whether you're a young adult trying to reconnect with who you are or a parent searching for support for your child, therapy can be a place to feel understood, build confidence, and create lasting change.

At Draw Within Counseling, I provide therapy for children, teens, and young adults in Waltham, and virtually throughout Massachusetts and Wisconsin. My practice specializes in anxiety, identity exploration, life transitions, emotional regulation, family conflict, and self-esteem through a creative, collaborative, and affirming approach.

For Young Adults

You may have spent years being the people pleaser, the perfectionist, the caretaker, or the one who always kept it together. Maybe you're navigating college, relationships, your career, or discovering who you are outside of everyone else's expectations.

Together, we'll work toward building self-trust, managing anxiety, setting healthier boundaries, and creating a life that feels authentic—not one driven by fear or the pressure to be everything for everyone.

For Children, Teens & Families

Childhood and adolescence come with big emotions, changing relationships, and growing responsibilities. Whether your child is struggling with anxiety, emotional overwhelm, school stress, or family conflict, therapy offers a supportive space to build coping skills, confidence, and healthier ways to communicate. I also partner with caregivers to strengthen family relationships and support lasting change beyond the therapy room.

Philosophy

As a Licensed Mental Health Counselor and Registered Expressive Arts Therapist, I combine evidence-based therapy with expressive arts interventions—including art, writing, movement, and other creative modalities—to help clients process experiences, express emotions, and discover new ways of coping. No artistic experience is ever needed.

Draw Within Counseling is proudly LGBTQIA+ affirming, neurodiversity-affirming, and Health at Every Size® (HAES)-aligned. My goal is to create a space where you can show up fully as yourself, without needing to explain, hide, or shrink who you are.

If you're ready to take the next step, I'd be honored to support you.

I invite you to draw within

It would be an honor to be part of your journey toward healing and self-discovery. If you're seeking a compassionate and creative approach to therapy, I invite you to explore the transformative possibilities of expressive therapy with me. Feel free to reach out for a consultation—I look forward to connecting with you!
