As an art therapist, my work involves using creative practices to access inner thoughts and feelings to aid with varied struggles including loss, depression, major life changes, new diagnoses and abuse. I have significant experience and am passionate about working with individuals within the neurodivergent community and LGBTQIA+ community.
My approach is to offer a non-judgemental space wherein individuals can release what they need to and gain what they feel may be missing. Art therapy can aid with a myriad of things from grief, depression, trauma and life changes. I find it helpful to alter my approach to ensure sessions are tailored to each individual.
As a queer therapist, personal life experience led me to research the effects of internalised homophobia on the mind and body; from this I gained insights in compassion focused therapy to work with shame and low self-esteem. This means that I may bring in a number of elements from my toolbox which includes mindfulness, movement and self portraiture work.

I use art psychotherapy within my practice. In your first session we will explore what brought you to therapy and think together about the most appropriate ways to help you help yourself. With art psychotherapy, we use an array of materials to explore emotions and experience. During sessions, there is no pressure to use materials.
