What our clients say:
Why choose art therapy over regular counselling?
For me art therapy has worked on such a deeper level than any other form of therapy... and it’s hard to describe why in words. It’s like there is another presence in the room, which helps you to express how you feel. You can do things with your hands rather than just talking. You can see yourself more clearly. You can make a mess and it’s OK.
I wouldn’t say it was easy – not at all, it was very hard work... but ultimately overall it has been a fantastic experience and I would recommend it as a form of therapy to anyone who is considering having therapy or counselling.

"I am amazed, and so glad I did your workshop – what an experience. I will be doing again... felt very comfortable and at ease -– was a bit worried bringing up stuff, reliving pain. I feel good. Thank you."

"Your workshop was so aptly timed. I just needed to let go of some negative energy creatively. With a media form I had not used before. I was able to contain it and show it in a suitably creative health environment."
Artist, Joan Celestin (Workshop participant, Kentish Town Health Centre)
"I loved the Divorce Recovery group and would recommend it to others... thank you for leading the group so well."
