About me

My name is Naomi and I am a Creative Arts Therapist. I offer a warm, confidential and validating space where you can bring what ever you need.

I am passionate about empowering women and members of the queer community. Watching clients increase their sense of agency, fulfilment in their lives and sense of joy is a great privilege. 

People come to therapy for many different reasons. You may be hoping for a space of peaceful refuge where you can practise slowing down and reconnecting with your emotions and your body. Maybe you are craving an opportunity to share your grief and trauma with somebody who will listen and explore the depth of your experiences with you, or you may wish to develop a deeper understanding of yourself and your habits and want to unravel the drives behind them to support you in making more empowering choices. 

Common experiences I work with are anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, complex trauma, grief, body image issues, eating disorders, sexuality exploration, LGBTQIA+ issues, pre-menstrual syndrome, and creative blocks. 

I work creatively in sessions because sometimes words are not enough for us to accurately express our thoughts, feelings and experiences. Instead, through music, art or movement we can at times find new solace, validation and understanding of our feelings. In sessions, we might use creative tools such as meditation, movement, art, writing, drama and music, or we may just talk. Together we will decide on an approach that feels safe and comfortable for the pace of our work.
