1-1 Art Therapy
I currently work as a private practioner, working directly with clients on a one-to-one basis in my therapy room in Remedy House, Willkinson Street.
- I offer a free 30 minute phone consultation where you can tell me a bit about why your are looking to start therapy and to see if it feels like the right fit.
- Sessions are 50 minutes and cost £60.
- I provide all art materials, including, paper, pens, pencils, charcoal, pastels, paint, paint bruhes/palettes, clay, 3D and a range of collage materials.
- Sessions will be held in the same place (either in my private therapy room or online) and at the same time, weekly or fortnightly, unless otherwise agreed. We will look at availablility in the initial consultation.
- The length of the therapy will depend on what you need, we can think about this at the beginning of therapy and will review regularly as we go along (usually every 6-8 weeks).
What is a 1-1 Art Therapy session like?
Individual Art Therapy can provide a confidential, non-judgmental space for expressing, exploring and processing our feelings, thoughts and experiences through art-making and verbal diaglogue within the context of a 1-1 therapeutic relationship.
You can use each session how you feel on the day – this may include a mixture of art-making and talking, some days you may wish just to chat or some days make art without any verbal dialogue at all. I can offer gentle guidence on art-making activities that might be helpful, if that is needed, and we can also make art together.
I can also offer a range of grounding and mindfulness-based exersizes to support tranistioning in or out of therapy, for relaxation and/or supporting gently checking in to see what feelings, thoughts and physical sensations are around.
I will be led by what ever you need on the day and if you are not sure we can think about that together.
