About me
I am an Art Psychotherapist with a background in mindfulness and yoga teaching. I have wide-ranging experience of helping people to explore their concerns and this can be an enjoyable as well as a provocative experience. I aim to support clients to work through emotional and psychological difficulties to gain self-understanding and discover ways to feel more connected within themself and in relation to others and their environment.
I hold a bio-psycho-social outlook in my work. This means we will work together to explore your therapeutic enquiry within a sociocultural framework, alongside an exploration of unconscious psychological forces and developmentally informed relationship patterns that may be at play in your life. I use an integrative approach including verbal communication, creative expression, and working with myths and symbols, depending on what feels useful. I draw on trauma-informed perspectives, including elements of bodywork, if and where this is required.
I am registered with the Health and Care Professions Council (the regulatory body for Art Psychotherapy in the UK) and adhere to their Art Psychotherapy Standards of Proficiency. I am a member of the British Association of Art Psychotherapists and follow their professional Code of Ethics.
I am undergoing further training in Attachment-Based Psychoanalytic Psychotherapy at the Bowlby Centre and currently seeking new clients interested in this modality.
