What is Art psychotherapy?
Unlike traditional talking therapy, art psychotherapy allows experiences that may be difficult or impossible to articulate, to be contained, discerned, materialised and externalised through the creative act.
Together we will explore narratives and identify patterns that one is unconsciously driven by. We may reflect on thoughts and feelings that arise in the presence in a non-judgemental and confidential space.
All sessions begin with a free initial consultation call, and first 1-3 assessment sessions to establish goals and get to know you.
