Doodles with clients

For my neurodivergent clients doodling is part of the therapeutic experience.

How does doodling help?

First it focuses the mind and helps to reduce anxiety. It's a great fidget.

Second it uses colour which many ND people pair with feelings, events, even seasons.

Third it can act as a sensory soother and light up a neurodivergent brain.

Research has long supported using creativity to reduce stress and trauma. Watercolour in particular is linked to nervous system soothing and a reduction in stress responses.

For ND brains add the uplifting effect of colour and sensory stimulation. My sessions offer exploration with art materials in a safe soothing environment.

Wild and Free.
Expressive Art is not about perfection. It's about a feeling, a moment in time, an expression through colour and form.

Sometimes it's so lovely to rediscover places that you already know. The Cathedral and gardens are now a beautiful shortcut on my way to work from my new place.

That little space of green and colourful flowers a real boost when I walk through. It's a moment of peace and appreciation for nature and the beautiful building that is Lancaster Cathedral.
