Art Therapy

CREATING ART CAN HELP THOSE WHO FIND IT HARD TO TALK ABOUT THEIR THOUGHTS AND FEELINGS

As a registered member of the The British Association of Art therapists (BAAT) and the Health Professions Council (HCPC), I have worked in "a special school" with children who have been excluded from mainstream education, helping both the children and parents to find ways of communication through creativity.

As a registered private practitioner with BAAT, I have also been working with women and adolescents from home (and recently on Zoom).

I now work privately from my small pottery/studio with adolescents, women, and families. I have extensive experience working within these sectors. I will also Zoom if preferred.

Art Therapy can be highly beneficial for exploring issues of self-esteem, anxiety or destructive feelings.

I am a Doctor of Philosophy and my PhD discusses women and body image using clay as a tool for reflection. I have had work in numerous publications, written books and participated and curated exhibitions throughout my career.

If you would like to discuss how art therapy can help you or your adolescent in more detail please email me for further information.
