Meet Nora

As a queer white woman, I aim to support clients who share intersecting identities and incorporate my values of anti-oppression into my therapeutic practice. I am a pre-licensed clinician with a Master’s degree from Drexel’s Art Therapy and counseling program. In session, I strive to learn from my client’s own wisdom and work in tandem with them to explore whatever may be showing up that day. I have a calm, compassionate, and curious personality that presents itself in the form of empathic listening, thoughtful question asking, reflective summarizing, and knowledge/resource sharing. When supporting people, I combine my training in art therapy with my education in psychodynamic, attachment and relational theories to help bring about change and growth.

Having been in therapy myself, I offer a personal awareness of how the relationship and structure can inform our choices in session. I am passionate about the healing properties of art-making and can offer a non-verbal approach to processing emotions through the exploration of art media if clients are interested. Additionally, I acknowledge that my own identities inform my perspective, and in response I seek to unlearn biases and challenge myself on the basis of compassion, curiosity and humility. I work from a place of always inviting feedback about our relationship and how you’re experiencing therapy in session as well. I am sex/kink/body positive.
