My specialty is working with men; as a man, I've thought a lot about what it means to be a man today. We’ve received unhelpful messages about masculinity, from TV, social media, etc. Men I’ve worked with asked how to be a good partner and Father?
We’ve heard of toxic masculinity, been blamed for the patriarchy. It can be hard being a man. Am I supposed to be emotional or a provider?
There are no certain answers, but there are mistakes to avoid and learning to be had.
I’m 58, straight, cis gender man, with an interest in how to live a good life as a man, I feel I feel I have a dog in this fight.

Hi, I'm Charlotte - a High Intensity Therapist, Mental Health Social Worker, and someone who genuinely gets what it's like when anxiety, OCD, or phobias take over your life.
Are you stuck in exhausting thought cycles? Avoiding places or situations because the fear feels too big? Maybe you're neurodivergent and finally have words for experiences that have confused you for years, but you're not sure what to do with that understanding?
I know what it's like to feel trapped in your own head. It's exhausting, confusing, and sometimes it feels like no one else quite gets what you're going through. I do.

Play therapy uses a range of creative mediums such as art, sand, movement, music and more to help children to express and communicate their feelings though play.
As a therapist working with children, I offer calm from the storm they may be feeling. With my years of knowledge and experience I am able to provide the space for your child to work through those challenging emotions and life events. Children don't always have the words they need to communicate how they are feeling, this is why play therapy is a powerful tool to help children to express their emotions non-verbally, if they prefer. My background in working therapeutically with children who are looked after and schools, means I have the knowledge and skills to help alleviate these difficult emotions and behaviours.

How does art therapy work?
The process of making art allows people to express themselves. Art-making can take many forms, such as painting, collage, or sculpting. The therapist asks questions that the work elicits, such as how the person felt while creating their piece, or if any memories surfaced that they can discuss. The therapist will then work with the patient to process their experience, understand themselves better, and work toward change.
Does art therapy help with trauma?
Art therapy can be a valuable treatment option for those suffering from trauma. Traumatic experiences such as combat, rape, or childhood abuse can be so painful that articulating them can be too scary or painful; creating art allows people to express themselves without words, and tell their story in a different way. The physical nature of creating art can also help people feel rooted in the body, which may benefit those who feel disconnected from their body in the aftermath of trauma.
How long does art therapy last?
The duration of art therapy varies, but a common length for treatment is 10 to 15 weekly sessions. Some people may see improvement in just a few weeks, while others may choose to remain in therapy longer term. Patients should periodically discuss their goals with their therapist to make sure the two are aligned on process and progress.
What are the limitations of art therapy?
Art therapy is helpful for many people, but a limitation is that it doesn’t have as robust an evidence base as other forms of therapy, such as cognitive behavioural therapy or acceptance and commitment therapy. The evidence on art therapy is mixed; some research demonstrates its benefits, while other research suggests that it has little impact on patients.
