About me
Hi my name is Hannah and I am an Art Psychotherapist offering therapy in Lincoln for adults and children. I provide my clients with a safe nurturing environment and take great pride in supporting each individual in a way that works for them. I am adaptable and keen to guide the client in developing their knowledge and understanding of their lived experiences without judgment. I enable each client to process their difficulties and learn how to create their own therapeutic toolkit to support moving forwards in their lives.
I work with full respect and consideration for a clients personal choices and preferences to ensure you feel heard and the correct support is offered. For me it is critical to respect individuality, values and diversity to ensure I work with a full understanding and with sensitivity as a therapist.

Further information
Art Psychotherapy is a specialist modality which utilises art materials as a communicative tool to create a unique experiential experience.
The process of Art making is nurturing, calming, enabling and enriching by developing mental health awareness and transferrable skills to tackle difficult emotions and trauma.
This process encourages talking therapy to develop through the therapeutic relationship and provides safety and a secure autonomy for each client.
