About me
Hello and welcome to my profile. I am available to provide Art Therapy sessions for you. Addressing mental health issues can be a daunting process and thinking about the process of change can be difficult. I hope to be able to offer therapeutic support in a timely and helpful way, taking into account your aims and reasons for coming to therapy. I am competent in working with Anxiety, Depression and people who are Neurodivergent and may have a diagnosis of ASD and ADHD. You do not need to be good at art in order to see an art therapist and no previous art experience is required. In a session, I am looking for connection, not perfection.
My approach is based on traditional Psychodynamic theory and I hope to connect in a professional therapeutic relationship in which we discuss emotional and psychological blocks with a sense of curiosity. Art making can be a relaxing, insightful and emotive experience and offer a deeper level of understanding of yourself. Sessions are weekly and last 50 minutes.
Training, qualifications & experience
I graduated from Roehampton University which is a psychology based training and titled "MA Art Psychotherapy". I am interested in the impact of early childhood on psychological development and well-being, as well as considering unconscious processes. I approach therapeutic relationships with enthusiasm and compassion. I have benefitted from the relationship between arts and emotional well-being and I hope to share my passion with you.
I have worked with children, young people and adults in a variety of settings such as CAMHS, specialist school provisions and adult mental health settings. I have experience working in residential care as well as a project manager for a creative project in Zambia, Africa. I have experience in providing training in various mental health topics as well as supervising others in my clinical work.
