Arts therapy is a psychotherapy that is action-based.
This means that we have, other than the talking, other tools and mediums that we can use for our self-expression.

It is about the relationship, deepening that relationship through a felt sense. And that felt sense we can create through using and adopting other materials that we use in that process of self-exploration.

When we use arts therapy as an action-based approach, it is about creating a felt sense. We use a lot of different materials that we can touch and feel and actually activate our senses. This gives us an understanding of the relationship that we are building between client and therapist and can deepen our understanding of a particular issue.

It serves a broad range of issues and it is really about giving another way or fostering another way of feeling communication. For example, through the touch and activation of our senses, when we doing something tactile and feeling something with our fingers, our whole body.

Art therapy is definitely NOT something particular for people who come with artistic skills into the session.
It is something that anyone can do. Anyone can actually benefit from art therapy because it fosters your imagination and your creative side. It fosters a rethinking and a reprocessing of issues that you're experiencing in your daily life and creates different perspectives.

What if… there are days where you can’t see the sun shining… where everything turns black and muddy… everything feels hopeless and without meaning… where you can’t trust others because it’s hard enough or not even possible to trust yourself…
What if... your voice doesn't know how to speak up... because at some point no one listened... no one cared...
What if… everything around you seems overwhelming… feels literally painful on your skin…
And you retreat to silence... self-isolation... and self-doubt kicks in.
At ART IN PROCESS Therapy we listen, feel, pause, sit with stuckness, move on. Whatever we do or not do, we self-express and learn to understand what self-care, self-compassion and self-love really are for YOU as an individual. So that you can maintain or form new relationships with others, and enable you to connect. We work with you on building trust to self and other through the therapeutic relationship and explore your possibilities. And we provide a safe space for you to discover, acknowledge, accept your strengths, skills, abilities, your very own and individual identity.
Reach out to us if you feel this is the right time for you. Please note that ART IN PROCESS Therapy is a psychotherapy service with one on one sessions that are developed according to your needs. All ages. Mental Health | Chronic Pain | Complex Trauma | Gender & Cultural Identity. Bookings available for Thur and Fri - 9am to 6pm. Contact us for any queries.

PROGRESS can be to REACH OUT and let me know about your presenting issues. Express yourself verbally and non-verbally, through image making and gentle movement

”Speak my body, I want to hear your voice. Sometimes I don’t or simply won’t listen. I acknowledge your strength, your persistence in trying to make contact. I move, often too fast, then slowly, pause, feel, and then I hear and tears can release what has been kept for so long. I struggle but keep moving and over time I learn to understand.” Pain relates to something, experiences from the past, intrusions the body had to endure,... through creative & therapeutic encounters we create a safe space so that we can listen and understand how our body, mind and spirit communicate.

I believe that every person should have a voice, be respected for who they are and how they feel. With ART IN PROCESS Therapy I want to support clients to explore, connect and heal. Clients are provided with a safe space to express their feelings and emotions by engaging with creative modalities (movement & dance, drama, visual imagery and creative writing) to nurture self-actualisation. It is a low skill high sensitivity approach. Therefore it is neither expected nor a requirement for clients to have any creative skills to benefit from this therapeutic practice.

ABOUT ME: I had always an interest in the healing qualities of art making. In my role as an artist, I have longstanding experience of working with others in diverse socio-cultural contexts.
During my early studies I focused on the aesthetics of interdisciplinary artforms, especially interested in European postdramatic forms of expression and object/installation theatre. In more recent years I shifted my focus towards Creative Arts Therapies and gained psychotherapeutic skills to underline my artistic expertise, which informs my overall work with clients.

LET ME KNOW ABOUT YOU: I am available for individual sessions on request at the moment. Please contact me to discuss further.
Group sessions can be organised.
Children, Youth and Adults. Sessions are kept person-centred. Use of various modalities is adjusted to age group and presenting issues.
