Chiu is a certified art psychotherapist based in the North East. Over the past five years, Chiu has delivered art therapy to individuals and groups in a wide range of settings, including the NHS, care homes, SEN schools, and local council services across London,Edinburgh, Newcastle and Northumberland.
My belief lies in the immense power of empathy, active listening, and providing a safe and inclusive environment for each person. I’ve witnessed how art creation serves as a non-verbal avenue, offering glimpses into the subconscious and aiding in processing trauma.
My art therapy approach is informed by Attachment based Psychodynamic theory, Mentalisation Based Therapy (MBT) and Family Systems Theory.
I am dedicated to adhering to ethical standards, aligning my practice with the British Association of Art Therapists (BAAT) code of ethics and principles of professional practice, as well as the standards set by the HCPC.
