3 years ago I became a Creative Therapist. It has been the most rewarding and enjoyable thing I have done, helping so many children and young people with their struggles 🎨

Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder can definitely affect friendships, and a lot of people with ADHD struggle socially at times — even when they’re kind, funny, and really want friends. ❤️
Some common ADHD-related friendship difficulties include: • interrupting or talking over people without meaning to, • forgetting messages or plans, • being very intense or enthusiastic early in friendships, • struggling to read social cues, • emotional sensitivity or feeling rejected very strongly, • impulsive comments, • mood changes or overwhelm, • zoning out in conversations, • or finding it hard to maintain contact consistently.
Many people with ADHD also experience Rejection Sensitive Dysphoria (RSD) — where criticism, exclusion, or feeling ignored can feel extremely painful.
For children and teens especially, this can lead to friendship fallouts, feeling “too much” or misunderstood, masking to fit in, anxiety around social groups, or becoming withdrawn after rejection.
The positive side is that ADHD traits can also make people creative, loyal, funny, energetic, passionate, and deeply caring friends.
Helpful things can include understanding ADHD social differences, emotional regulation support, structured activities/shared interests, therapy or coaching, and friendships with people who communicate clearly and accept neurodiversity.
If you have ADHD or love someone who does — you’re not alone. 💛

School holidays aren’t always “fun” for every child…

For some autistic children, they can feel overwhelming, confusing, and dysregulating.

Routine disappears.
Structure changes.
Safe predictability is gone.

What looks like “more free time”
can actually feel like more uncertainty.

And sometimes…
no matter what you plan, suggest, or try—

You just can’t get them out of the house.

Not because they’re being difficult.
Not because they don’t want to enjoy themselves.

But because the outside world can feel too much.

Too unpredictable.
Too overwhelming.
Too exhausting.

You might see:
• Increased meltdowns
• Anxiety
• Shutdowns
• Difficulty sleeping

These children don’t need more pressure to “just go out” or “join in”

They need:
✨ Predictability
✨ Gentle structure
✨ Understanding
✨ A safe space to just be

💛 For some families, staying home is what support looks like

Despite being only 35, I’ve had a breadth of life experience. Sometimes we have to hit rock bottom to find the strength to swim back to the top. I’ve worked with children and young people for many years and have run my own business for over five, delivering grief work and creative therapies in schools and community settings. Every environment has deepened my respect for the incredible resilience young people show, often in the face of enormous pressure. Growing up in today’s society is far from easy—peer pressure, friendship challenges, and the academic demands placed on them can feel overwhelming, particularly for those who are neurodivergent. Yet time and again, I see their courage, creativity, and capacity to recover shine through, reminding me why this work matters so deeply.

🌱 Grief isn’t something to “get over.”
It’s a natural and normal response to loss. Yet so many of us are left feeling stuck, weighed down by unspoken words, unmet hopes, or unresolved pain.

The Grief Recovery Method® is not counselling or therapy—it’s an evidence-based program that gives you the tools to move beyond the pain of loss. It offers a safe, structured way to explore your emotions, let go of what feels unfinished, and rediscover a sense of peace and hope.

💬 If you’ve experienced:
✨ the death of a loved one
✨ divorce or relationship breakdown
✨ loss of health, trust, or safety
✨ any major life change that left you grieving

…you don’t have to face it alone.

🌟 Healing is possible. Taking the first step is a brave choice—you deserve support, understanding, and a path forward.

📩 Message me to learn more about how the Grief Recovery Method® could help you.

Good Luck to all the pupils I’ve worked with this year, I hope you get the GCSE results you want. But if you don’t, remember that’s also OK too!

Creative therapy gives the mind a language beyond words — where paintbrushes, poems, music, and movement help untangle what can’t always be spoken. Healing doesn’t always start with talking… sometimes it begins with creating.” 🎨🧠💛

🌀 What is Creative Therapy? 🎨🧠
You might have heard the term, but what does it actually mean?

Creative Therapy is a powerful, supportive way of exploring your emotions, experiences, and thoughts — but instead of relying on words alone, it invites you to create. This can be through art, music, movement, writing, or other creative processes.

It’s not about being “good” at art or making something perfect. In fact, there’s no right or wrong way to express yourself in creative therapy. It’s about giving your inner world a safe space to speak, especially when words feel too hard or not enough.

✨ It can help with:
– Grief and loss
– Anxiety and overwhelm
– Emotional expression
– Building confidence and self-awareness
– Grounding and regulation

Whether you’re navigating something big or just needing a gentle outlet, creative therapy can offer healing through expression and connection.

From supporting pupils through anxiety and bereavement, to helping adults find healing after loss, my approach is person-centred, compassionate, and grounded in practical tools that empower growth and self-expression.

Whether it’s through grief-specific activities, grounding techniques, or sensory profiling, I’m here to help individuals reconnect with themselves and move forward with resilience and hope.
