During the assessment I listen to your story, and I may gently ask you questions about your early life experiences (only if this is comfortable for you), to gain a developmental picture and how you have learned to relate to yourself, the people around you and your environment. This is done at your pace. You may chose to tell me your story in your art making, and this is what art therapy is all about.
I offer Guided Drawing which is a sensorimotor intervention aimed at building inner resources and processing trauma. It also enables people to identify areas in their body that store difficult life experiences, to help process those events. Guided Drawing is an intervention that can be used in groups.
My practice is evidence-based, rooted in research and I engage in regular Continuing Practice Development as part of my HCPC registration. I also have monthly clinical supervision which ensures my safe clinical practice.
