About me
I am a qualified Art Therapist who is passionate about working alongside children and young people to assist them to process and communicate their emotions, feelings and personal experiences through the engagement of art materials and play. I work predominantly following a psychodynamic, non-directive client centred approach to art therapy, however, I adapt my professional practice to meet the needs of each individual service user.
I believe that art is a powerful form of non-verbal communication which allows the individual to express their emotions and explore self-identity whilst being supported in a safe and contained environment.
Training, qualifications & experience
Masters in Art Therapy achieved from University of Hertfordshire in 2021
I have experience supporting children and young people who live with learning difficulties, Autism and/or ADHD and have practiced within private therapy settings as well as conducting my experiential learning within Social Emotional and Mental Health (SEMH) and Special Educational Needs (SEN) school environments.
Member organisations
Being registered/accredited with a professional body means an individual must have achieved a substantial level of training and experience approved by their member organisation.
The HCPC are an independent, UK-wide health regulator. They set standards of professional training, performance and conduct for 16 professions.
They keep a register of health professionals who meet their standards, and they take action if registered health professionals fall below those standards. They were created by a piece of legislation called the Health Professions Order 2001.
Registration means that a health professional meets national standards for their professional training, performance and conduct.
