Personal Statement
Anne Giannotti MA
Art Therapist
"I am a qualified art psychotherapist (BAAT and HCPC registered) with a private practice based in Shoreditch, London. In my work I take a humanistic perspective that integrates various psychodynamic theories with a person-centred approach. Adapting sessions to a person’s unique needs and abilities, I work together with individuals to find ways for improving self-esteem and self-actualisation."
AREAS OF SPECIAL INTEREST
• Anxiety and depression caused by work related stress.
• Trauma, loss, bereavement, difficult life transitions.
• Depression, anger and loss experienced while adapting to life-long physical and emotional
changes following a stroke or acquired brain injury, or living with a chronic disability or
neurological condition.
• Carers looking after a close family member wishing to take precious individual time to explore
changing family dynamics and relationships, stress, mental and physical fatigue.
AT HOME ART THERAPY
I also offer a home visit service to housebound brain injury or stroke survivors and individuals with neurological conditions living in London.
By bringing along a selection of art materials, I reach out to individuals with reduced mobility and various cognitive issues at their place of residence for a pre-determined course of 30 to 50 minutes sessions.
ART THERAPY EXPERIENCE
I have a wide variety of experience including acute adult inpatient NHS psychiatric unit facilitating ward based art therapy group and individual sessions, and in the charity sector working with adults affected by depression, anxiety, addiction and homelessness.
My interest in working with brain injury survivors and people affected by chronic neurological disorders has motivated me to set up and run, alongside my private practice, an art therapy service for a leading London charity supporting people living with those conditions, and I currently provide individual sessions for its clients.
I also have initiated and currently facilitate a therapeutic art making project at patients' bedside in a central London NHS stroke and neurological unit.
