I’m a trauma-informed, person-centred Art Psychotherapist with experience supporting both young people and adults in education, specialist mental health settings, and private practice. My background includes working in PRUs (Pupil Referral Units), SEMH (Social, Emotional and Mental Health) schools, and with adults in recovery from addiction. I bring a calm, compassionate, and creative approach to therapy that helps people explore their thoughts and emotions in ways that feel safe and manageable. I am registered with HCPC, BAAT and have a enhanced DBS. You don’t need to make art in every session, it’s entirely up to you. Some clients prefer to talk, others like to explore through images, and many do a mixture of both. What I offer is a creative space where art-making is available if words feel difficult. It’s a gentle, client-led process that moves at your pace. I’m attachment-informed and work relationally, paying close attention to how early experiences shape our emotional world, self-worth, and relationships. Alongside my clinical work, I’ve co-created webinars on emotional wellbeing for adults, where I’ve supported women exploring identity, perfectionism, stress, and anxiety, offering tools rooted in mindfulness, psychoeducation, and creative reflection. My goal is to meet you where you are, whether you're feeling overwhelmed, stuck, disconnected or simply curious about starting therapy. You don’t have to go through it alone. This is a space to slow down, make sense of things, and reconnect with yourself. I offer a free 15-minute intro call for anyone curious about creative therapy or unsure where to start.
