About me and my therapy practice
I qualified as an Art Psychotherapist in 2009 and am HCPC registered and since then have worked in the community delivering art therapy in schools, eating disorder units, palliative care and in the Young Adult Service. For the last 7 years I have mainly worked with children and young people as well as their families and run a private practice alongside.
My training was essentially psychodynamic but since qualifying I have completed further training covering family systems, narcissistic and domestic abuse, addictions, codependency, and play therapy.
Practice description
I work from my practice studio in my garden so it is a very private and tranquil space for clients.
Sometimes words can be hard to find so as an art psychotherapist I offer a range of art/play materials and the opportunity to use them as a way into exploring sensitive issues. Any artwork created during sessions is kept confidentially in a secure cabinet and given to clients at the end of our time together.
My first session
The first session is a time where we will meet and perhaps explore the initial reasons that you are seeking therapy at this time. It is also a time for you to see if you feel comfortable with me and if I am the right person for you to work with going forward. Starting therapy can feel like a big step so its important that it feels comfortable and safe to you. This session is also an opportunity for you to ask me any questions that you may have and see how I work. We can then decide together if I and my therapeutic approach will be helpful to you and if you would like to start working together.
I offer a free 15 min discovery phone call so we can talk through what your needs may be at this time.
