Hello, thanks for visiting my profile. What has brought you here? Perhaps you keep repeating old patterns, lack motivation, or are unhappy in your work or relationships. You know you want things to change but don't know where to start. I offer a unique and integrative approach. We connect to the body- that is the starting point. I offer outside or inside sessions. Outside we respond to the natural environment. I encourage you to tune in and observe, noticing feelings, sensations, and thoughts. I have many years of experience and many resources to help you become more grounded, and connected and shift your focus, and energy.

Clients who can use art psychotherapy may have a wide range of difficulties, disabilities or diagnoses. These include, for example emotional, behavioural or mental health problems, PTSD, relationship issues, difficult experiences such as historical abuse or bereavement, life-limiting conditions and physical illness. It is not a recreational activity or an art lesson, although the sessions can be enjoyable. Clients do not need to have any previous experience or expertise in art so please don't be put off by the word 'art'. There is no pressure to use the art materials, sometimes just talking is enough.

At times we all feel vulnerable in life and taking that first step to access support can feel daunting. Therapy may help if you are feeling like you have lost your way, feel unsettled, or you may be experiencing more intense feelings such as anxiety or depression. You may have experienced trauma (recently or in the past), or you may be in a life transition such as parenthood. I have a specialist interest and experience in antenatal, postnatal and parenting difficulties and have over 10 years’ experience working specifically in this area in the NHS. I am also a domestic abuse ambassador for a local NHS Trust.

We all have those times in our life when things get on top of us. We feel overwhelmed and maybe unable to cope.

Whether that’s building self-esteem; coping & living with anxiety and depression or dealing with a difficult life event, my intention is to work with you to find the resilience & skills you need to make changes that stick.

Reaching out for help takes courage, particularly if your self-esteem and confidence are low. But, if you want to make changes in your life then you may need support. People come to counselling for all sorts of reasons; anxiety, relationship issues, depression, bereavement, trauma etc. Perhaps you feel inhibited, have unhealthy patterns of behaviour or your emotions may be hijacking your ability to respond and keep perspective. Whatever the reason, the chances are you are feeling deeply distressed. You don’t have to keep struggling alone. Together we can work out what is causing you to feel threatened, overwhelmed or empty.

I understand that the decision to start therapy is rarely made lightly, and taking that first step can feel overwhelming. You may be feeling apprehensive, anxious, and sceptical about sharing your innermost thoughts and emotions with a stranger. It takes immense courage to be vulnerable and talk about the difficulties you are experiencing, and I want you to know that I fully appreciate and respect your decision to seek help. You might be facing a specific problem that you want to address, such as relationship issues, anxiety. Alternatively, you may have a sense that something in your life is not quite right, but cannot identify it.
