Drama therapy is an embodied practice that is active and experiential. I have a person-centred approach: radical acceptance, unconditional positive regard with a non-directive stance. I strive to work with the healthy resilience of the individual or group, creating a sense of safety in the present so that personal challenges can be explored in a contained way. Whilst creativity is the foundation for curiosity and expression, the sessions are client led focusing on their preferred mode of expression. The work (with children and adults) is trauma informed and diversity sensitive. Restoring and encouraging agency is ever present

The initial goal is to encourage a sense of safety in the present, so that you can start exploring the implications of past experiences knowing that they are in the past and not happening now. Facing the past can be overwhelming, and together we can explore when and at what distance you can feel safe- and brave-enough to integrate these into a fuller life-narrative so that they do not define you.
