Photography + Branding for Private Practice Growth

I’m an art therapist, artist, and professional photographer who helps therapists become visible online through strategic photography, branding, and digital presence support.

I know what it’s like to build a private practice from the ground up, and how essential visibility is in that process. I’m a strong believer of anti-gatekeeping and sharing what helped me grow a full caseload and build an engaged online presence of over 12,000+ followers on Instagram, while deepening my identity as a therapist during my first year of private practice.

I now bring those two worlds together: helping small business health professionals translate who they are clinically into how they show up visually and professionally online.

Supervision is an essential part of becoming a skilled, confident, and effective therapist. It’s more than just a requirement for licensure. It’s a collaborative process where you can reflect on your work, receive guidance, and grow both personally and professionally. Whether you're working toward licensure or advancing your skills as a practicing clinician, the support you receive during supervision helps to refine your therapeutic approach, deepen your understanding of clients, and cultivate the confidence to make sound clinical decisions!

Why I Became A Clinical Supervisor for Therapists in Maryland

Becoming a board-approved supervisor for counselors and art therapists was a natural progression in my professional journey, driven by a deep commitment to fostering growth and excellence in the field! I believe that guiding and supporting fellow professionals enhances the overall quality of care provided to clients, creating a ripple effect of positive change.

It’s essential for me to remain actively engaged with my own clients while fulfilling my role as a supervisor. This dual role ensures that I stay grounded in the practical realities of therapeutic work, maintaining a direct connection to the challenges and rewards faced by those I supervise. By integrating my hands-on experience with supervisory responsibilities, I can offer relevant, empathetic guidance and support, ultimately enriching the learning experience for emerging professionals and enhancing the impact of their work.
