I currently work part time with children and adolescents as an art therapist at a specialist school for autism. I have experience working with adults and children struggling with all the issues mentioned above and tailor my sessions to the individual's personal circumstances and abilities.

ART THERAPY

Supporting your mental health recovery

Art Therapy is a form of psychotherapy that uses art media as its primary means of expression and communication

Using art materials can be particularly helpful when working with adults or children who find verbal communication difficult, as they can explore and communicate feelings creatively through the art form. The act of art making in itself can be very therapeutic, helping to provide a sense of safety and relaxation which can in turn promote communication.

Adults or children who would like help to reduce stress, manage behaviours such as anxiety, depression and panic attacks, increase self-esteem and self-awareness, achieve insights and help to work through trauma and difficult life experiences.

The art therapist' role is to listen, help set therapeutic goals and sometimes set specific activities designed to help explore emotions and feelings. At times the therapist will help to interpret the clients creative communication to make sense of their inner thoughts, feelings and experiences.

No artistic ability is needed and all art materials are provided.
