Welcome to Art Therapy

In my practice, I believe in the transformative power of art. My unique therapy approach combines creativity and empathy to help you unlock your inner potential and find healing through self-expression. I am trained in Psychodynamic art therapy, as well as using trauma informed models of therapy and client-led, person centred approaches. I tailor my sessions based on what works for you, and will work with you as a guide.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is art therapy?
Art therapy is a form of psychotherapy that uses creative expression to explore emotions, promote self-awareness, and support mental health.

How can art therapy benefit me?
Art therapy can help individuals process and express emotions, reduce stress, improve self-esteem, and enhance overall well-being.

Is art therapy suitable for everyone?
Art therapy is suitable for individuals of all ages and backgrounds, regardless of artistic skill or experience. It offers a non-verbal way to communicate and connect with oneself and others.

What can I expect?

In a session, you can expect to engage in art-making using your choice of materials supplied by me or brought in by yourself if you wished to bring anything. One session will last 50 minutes for individual therapy, group sessions may range from 1.5-2 hours.

I believe in supporting mental health before anything else, using the arts to express yourself when words are hard to find
