Meet Jody
Jody is a creative and compassionate therapist who supports clients through the healing power of art. She has experience working with children, youth, and adults experiencing grief and loss, life transitions, illness, anxiety, depression, and challenges with emotional regulation. Jody believes many feelings and experiences are difficult to express verbally, so she uses creative expression to foster self-awareness, resilience, and connection. She strives to create a space where clients feel seen, heard, and valued.
