Maybe this is your little reminder…

I know lots of you have been saying “I’d love to do something like this”… but then life gets in the way and we put ourselves to the bottom of the list.

Well… my adult Drawing & Talking groups are starting very soon and I’d really love to see some more lovely faces there.

It’s just an hour to slow down, breathe, have a cuppa, pick up a pencil and give yourself a bit of time and space. And honestly… you don’t need to be good at drawing, you don’t need to know anyone and there’s absolutely no pressure to talk or share.

Just come as you are.

If you’ve been thinking “maybe I should…” maybe this is your sign to book.

Could your child use a little extra support this term?

Back to school can bring big feelings: anxiety, worries, low confidence, overwhelm or simply finding it hard to put feelings into words.

Sometimes children don’t need us to fix things. They just need a safe space, someone to listen and a gentle way to make sense of what they’re feeling.

That’s where Small Wonders comes in.

I offer gentle, child-centred Sand Tray Therapy and Drawing & Talking sessions, helping children explore their emotions in a way that feels natural and comfortable for them.

I currently have some weekend availability for private sessions.

If you’ve been wondering whether some additional emotional wellbeing support could help your child, please send me a message. We can have a chat with no pressure and see what might be right for them.

Sometimes a little extra support at the right time can make all the difference.

I’ve been waiting to say this… but we’re nearly there!

My September Adult Drawing & Talking groups are starting very soon and I’d genuinely love to fill the remaining spaces.

If you’ve been watching my posts, thinking “That sounds lovely…” but haven’t quite got around to booking, this is your little nudge from me. 😊

Because how often do we say: “I’ll make time for myself when things calm down.”
I’ll do something for me when I’ve got more time.”
“Maybe next month…”

But life doesn’t always magically get quieter, does it? Sometimes we have to make the space. That’s what my groups are about.

One hour away from the busyness. A pencil and some paper. A warm, welcoming space.
Time to pause, reflect and explore how you’re feeling and absolutely no need to be good at drawing!

You don’t need to know anyone.
You don’t have to talk if you don’t want to.
And you don’t have to share your drawing unless you choose to. Just come as you are.

I’ll be running two groups:

• St Matthew’s Wellness Centre, Prudhoe
• Clear Mind Collective, Forest Hall

Starting this September and there aren’t many days left to decide.

If something in you has been saying “I think I need this…” then please don’t ignore that little voice.

Book your place or message me if you’d like to have a chat first. There’s absolutely no pressure.

I’d really love to see you there.

A little space, just for you...
I'm so pleased to be bringing another Therapeutic Drawing & Talking group to Clear Mind Collective at Forest Hall.

You don't need to be artistic and there's no pressure to share more than you're comfortable with. This isn't an art class, it's about using simple drawing alongside therapeutic conversation to help process thoughts and feelings, reduce stress and improve emotional wellbeing.
Starts Wednesday 16th September
Small, welcoming group Suitable for adults (18+)
No artistic ability needed
Limited places available
If this feels like something you need right now, l'd love to welcome you.

You keep saying you’ll make time for yourself…

When things calm down.
When work gets easier.
When everyone else is sorted.
When you feel less tired.

But what if you didn’t wait?

What if, for just a little while, you gave yourself permission to stop, breathe and focus on YOU?

My September Therapeutic Drawing & Talking Groups are for adults who are feeling emotionally tired, overwhelmed, stuck in their heads, or simply know they need some time and space for themselves.

You don’t have to be “good at drawing”.
You don’t have to share anything you don’t want to.
You don’t have to have the right words.

Just come as you are. 🧡

Six gentle weekly sessions.
A small, supportive group.
A safe space to slow down, reflect and reconnect with yourself.

• St Matthew’s Wellness Centre, Prudhoe.
• Clear Mind Collective, Forest Hall.

Places are still available: starting mid September.

And honestly… if you’ve been looking at these posts thinking “That sounds lovely, but…”

Maybe stop talking yourself out of it.

Give yourself the hour.
You deserve it.

Places are limited, so if you’d like to find out more or reserve your place, just send me a message. 💌

Maybe you don’t need another thing to add to your to-do list…

Maybe you need an hour where you can forget about your to-do list altogether.

I’ve been thinking about my adult Drawing & Talking groups this morning and who might be sitting in those chairs with me in September.

Maybe it’s you.

Maybe you’re always busy looking after everyone else.

Maybe your head feels like it has 101 tabs open.

Maybe you just fancy doing something a little different and having some time that’s completely your own.

That’s what these groups are about.

An hour to slow down.
A chance to breathe.
A pencil and some paper.
A little time to explore how you’re feeling.

And honestly, you don’t need to know what you’re doing! 😂

You don’t need to be able to draw. You don’t need to talk if you don’t want to. You don’t need to know anyone else there.

I’ll be there to welcome you, guide you through the session and make sure you feel comfortable.

I had some lovely feedback from my first group, with one participant describing it as a “pause to take some time for themselves.”

And that’s exactly what I want these groups to be.

A little pause in your week.

My September groups are at:

• St Matthew’s Wellness Centre, Prudhoe
• Clear Mind Collective, Forest Hall

Places are limited because I want to keep the groups small and friendly.

If you’ve been thinking about coming along, this is your little nudge from me. 🧡

If you’re not sure or have questions, send me a message. I’m very happy to chat before you decide.

Booking links are in the comments on Facebook and in my bio on Instagram.
Or you can just message me and I’ll send you an easy booking link.

September is nearly here… and I’m getting excited!

I’ve been talking about my adult Drawing & Talking groups for a little while now and I thought I’d pop another little reminder out there for anyone who’s been following along and thinking…

“I wonder if this is actually for me?”

Well, maybe it is. 😊

These sessions are for anyone who could do with a little time for themselves.

You don’t need to be artistic.
You don’t need to know anyone coming.
You don’t have to talk if you don’t want to.
And there definitely isn’t a right or wrong way to draw! 😂✏️

We just simply take some time to slow down, think about an emotion, put pencil to paper and see what comes up.

Sometimes there’s chatting and laughter. Sometimes there’s quiet. Sometimes it’s just really lovely to have an hour where nobody needs anything from you.

And that’s probably my favourite part.

We’re all so busy looking after everyone else that it’s very easy to put ourselves at the bottom of the list.

So, if you’ve been waiting for a little nudge to do something for you, perhaps this is it.

Picture yourself here for an hour…

It’s been a busy week.

You’ve been juggling work, family, messages, jobs that need doing and all the little things that somehow seem to fill our days.

Then you walk through the door.

You make yourself comfortable.

You take a breath.

There’s a cup of tea, a pencil and some paper waiting for you.

And for the next hour, nobody needs anything from you.

We spend a little time thinking about an emotion, then you simply let your pencil do some of the talking.

You might chat.

You might doodle.

You might sit quietly and get lost in your thoughts for a while.

There’s no pressure to create something beautiful. No pressure to talk. No pressure to share.

Just a little space to pause.

That’s what I’m hoping to create with my adult Drawing & Talking groups this September.

I’ll be running small, friendly groups at:

St Matthew’s Wellness Centre in Prudhoe
Clear Mind Collective in Forest Hall

If you’ve been following along and thinking “I really should do something for myself…”, perhaps this is your little nudge.

I’d genuinely love to welcome you.

If you’d like to ask me anything before booking, just send me a message. I’m always happy to chat.

A little hello to anyone in and around Forest Hall…

I’m really excited to be bringing my Adult Drawing & Talking Wellbeing Group to Clear Mind Collective this September.

If you’ve been following my posts about the groups, you might be wondering what it’s actually like.

Well, it’s really quite simple.

You come along, get yourself comfortable, take a breath and give yourself permission to slow down for a little while.

We’ll explore an emotion together, then spend some time drawing it out using nothing more than a plain pencil and paper.

And don’t worry… you absolutely do not need to be good at drawing! 😂✏️

This isn’t an art class and there’s no pressure to create anything “good”. Your drawing can be a picture, some shapes, scribbles or a doodle. It’s simply a way of expressing whatever comes up for you.

You can chat while you draw, enjoy the quiet, or share your thoughts at the end if you’d like to. There’s no pressure either way.

My hope is that you leave feeling a little lighter, a little calmer and glad that you gave yourself that hour.

And because it’s at Clear Mind Collective in Forest Hall, I’m really hoping to welcome some lovely local faces.
