As a professional Creative Arts Therapist working on Wurundjeri land, my offerings are about creating spaces and offering tools that support the re-connection to a creative path towards wellbeing. This "path" is defined by you and your unique needs and abilities. I have a special interest in facilitating inclusive and safe spaces for LGBTQIA+, neurodiverse and multicultural communities. Through lived experience, I have an understanding of the multifaceted challenges that emerge by navigating the everyday socio-political world through the lens of these intersections.
My approach is grounded in person centred and strength based methods that consider the whole person and their lived experience. Over the years I have witnessed how the arts therapies have such a significant impact in supporting the processing of trauma, grief and loss, transitional periods, as well as offer valuable tools to navigate everyday challenges.
The creative arts therapies offer an alternative and non-verbal means of communication where thoughts and emotions can be explored and held within symbols and images in a supportive environment and can also be further explored through talk therapy. For any questions, please feel free to email me for a free 15 minute consultation.
