Art Therapy services offered

Many people can be daunted by the idea of art making, saying ‘I’m not artistic, I can’t draw, I don’t know what to do’, or they may ask, ‘will you judge my work or me based on what I do?’ In response I would say no, it does not matter, you do not need any previous art making experience to avail of art therapy and I am not here to interpret or read your images. My job is to help explore the meanings and connections that you yourself find in your work.

In art therapy the image in itself is not what is important but more the creative process and the feelings that it brings up for us. Art making can bring about new ways of looking at life situations and events and can facilitate positive ways of dealing with life’s challenges. No matter how old you are or what your abilities are, art therapy is available to everyone. All you need to be is human.
