About me

Approach:

I am trained as an Art Psychotherapist which includes an understanding of early developmental, and attachment issues and a psychodynamic approach. However, I like to work collaboratively with my clients, working in a way that best suits the needs of the individual or group. I like to offer creativity, arts or play in my therapeutic interaction. I am also trained in Mindfulness interventions and can bring this into my therapeutic work. 

Training, qualifications & experience

I have an MA in Art Psychotherapy and qualified in 2007. I have also recently trained as a Mindfulness Teacher with Breathworks. I currently work for the NHS in adult mental health both individually and in groups and have experience of working with people who suffer from anxiety, depression, low self-esteem. I also currently work in education setting with young people who have  learning disabilities or are neurodivergent and struggle with their mental health. I have experience of working with primary school and secondary school aged children.
