Therapeutic art making can come in many different forms, but I specialise primarily in fine art. Other forms can include drama, dance, storytelling or play. I specialise in fine art as this is my background and I have all of the materials and equipment required to undertake sessions of this kind as a Holistic Integrated Creative Arts Practitioner.
Therapeutic art sessions are an excellent way of addressing emotional issues which may be confusing or distressing for an individual. It is also an excellent way for expressing ones self without having to use words. On completing tasks it is often easier to speak about the experience and the representations and can act as an excellent starting point for conversation and development.
In sessions I will guide the individual with different tasks, some will be quite structured and others may be quite open to interpretation. You do not need to bring anything with you unless you wish to do so - this can be discussed in our initial consultation.
Individuals are welcome to come for a free 30 minute consultation and initial exercise with no obligation to continue with further sessions. It is important that an individual feels comfortable with both myself, the space and the therapeutic process. Therapeutic art can be be utilised alongside holistic counselling and/or art tuition. I am insured and PVG checked. I have training in First Aid, Autism, Manual handling and Epilepsy. I have completed the COSCA Counselling Skills course and I have a Diploma in Holistic Integrated Creative Arts Therapy from Creative Therapies Scotland. I am also a member of the accredited body Federation of Holistic Therapists. My space is combined in my art tuition space at my studio at H1, Hill of Rubislaw in Aberdeen.
