Creative psychotherapy - art, music, drama - more gentle and accessible than talk therapy when words are hard to find or unavailable. #LooseWomen

Over the past 2 yrs I’ve been creating a deck of therapeutic conversation cards based on my #livedexperience. Today I’ve submitted it to a publisher! It’s been such hard work and I’m so thankful for all your feedback and support. Wish me luck and watch this space! #mentalhealth

This special issue will include research and practice papers highlighting the emerging field of online art therapy in order to share best practice, exchange knowledge and experience, and encourage future research in this area:

Clare Brewer Oh gosh - thank you so much. This means a lot! 😊

I love my pencil, my travel paints and my ink pen. You don’t need lots of expensive equipment to make art! #mentalhealth

Playful few hours - feeling inspired after what feels like a very long time 😊

The light in the studio is so lovely again this morning😊

Mary was 103. She kept things - and she looked after them - in drawers, boxes, pieces of tissue paper…and now I will look after them too. Some will be reworked in my studio (Mary would be pleased) and others will remain treasures to share with our future family #trashtotreasured

Nature and well being - a wonderful reminder of the powerful connection- 2 minutes worth a watch. Amazing makeup & prosthetics too - love those elf ears 🥰 #wellbeing #sfx #naturerocks #environmentaltherapy linkedin.com/posts/mathilda…
