Creative Coaching/Creative Therapy 

Why just talk, when you can get creative too? 


I use various different creative approaches during our sessions together, whether it's with clay, paint, sand, mask-making, buttons, playing 'Feelings Jenga' or even planting! 


These sessions give you a safe space to talk things through with me at your own pace with no judgement. It can help you to make more sense of your thoughts and emotions, unravelling them and putting them in some kind of order. 


he sessions are largly based on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), so that we can work together to you discovering your values and living a more meaningful life. 


I will offer you guidance, tips and prompts and may set you appropriate tasks to really help you on your healing journey. I offer this therapy for adults and young people. 


Creative Coaching - £25 per session (online also available)

Integrative SandPlay Therapy (Adults) 

ntegrative SandPlay Therapy combines both a non-directive and directive approach to working with the sand and symbols. This simply means that you, the client, will be given time and space to create your own SandTrays, in which you will place various symbols of your choice around the sand tray, creating a ‘scene’.

The scene you create will be a reflection of your own life, a struggle, a conflict or something hiding away in the unconscious mind that needs to be brought out in order for you to be able to resolve and heal. As well as giving you the time to create this scene by yourself, I, the therapist, can step in if appropriate and depending on your needs.

I might gently step in to prompt you, ask questions, make useful comments and encourage more involvement from the conscious mind.

Who is Integrative SandPlay Therapy for?

Integrative SandPlay Therapy is for adults and children. I specialise in working with adults, as it can be so powerful, moving and healing.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Mindful Movement and Mindful Story Telling

ACT is a 'new kid on the block' therapy, in which the aim is to maximise your potential to live a rich and meaningful life, by learning to accept what is out of your control and taking actions to improve and enrich your life. 


ACT is hugely successful, and is recommended by the World Health Organisation (WHO). It is a fast-growing therapy and can be used for lots of different things such as workplace stress, social anxiety, depression and many more. 


Mindful Movement combines Mindfulness with Movement and ACT. 


Mindful StoryTelling is all about using The Hero's Journey to transform from a victim to a hero, by helping you to see where you are in your journey and getting 'unstuck'.

- Everyday Stress

- Chronic Pain

Therapeutic ArtWork is a form of therapy that uses art and creativity as the basis of therapeutic expression, but this doesn't mean that you have to a brilliant artist! ArtWork can unlock the unconscious mind, helping to free the painful and uncomfortable thoughts, experiences and emotions that our conscious mind pushes away. In return, this can help to heal confusion and despair, anxieties and allows you to get to the bottom of any issues and problems you might be facing. In a typical session, you may feel drawn to paint, draw, doodle, make a collage or anything creative. Prompts can be given if appropriate and you will have the opportunity to discuss your ArtWork afterwards, if you wish to do so. 


Small elements of Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) will be woven into sessions and you are also able to speak freely about any issues in a safe, non judgmental space. 


£18 per session (online also available)
