Lindsey’s approach is genuine, warm, relational, and grounded in the connection of mind, body, heart, and spirit. She values mindfulness and somatic-based interventions through art therapy to bring greater awareness to one’s whole being. She aims to provide a safe and supportive environment where you are accepted just as you are. She will follow your lead, while remaining curious, engaged, and honest. She works to increase your ability to access your own wisdom and gain new insight and awareness. Perhaps you are stuck in your personal process or relationship(s), feeling anxious, depressed, unworthy, overwhelmed, or unsure of what to do next or how. Sometimes when lost or disconnected we need support to process emotions, interpersonal issues, or painful life events, to once again feel whole, centered, and connected to self and others.

Art Therapy values the process of creating over the product. This means that Lindsey will gauge your comfortability in the use of art materials and will cater to your needs in challenging you to approach your experience through creativity. There is no prior skill or experience needed, and Lindsey will work will client to find an appropriate balance of talk and art therapy.

Lindsey graduated from Portland State University where she earned her Bachelors in Art Practices. She earned her Masters of Arts In Art therapy in 2025 and worked in both inpatient and outpatient settings. She has served a broad array of populations including Caregivers, LQBTQIA+, Young Adults, Adults and those affected by substance use.
