You don't have to call yourself an artist to walk through the door.
These workshops start from a simple conviction: creativity is not a talent some people have and others don't. It is a way of thinking, feeling, and making sense of experience that belongs to everyone — and one that therapy, at its best, has always known how to use.
In a world that asks us to explain ourselves in words, these workshops offer something different. We work with image, story, movement, and making — not to produce good art, but to reach the parts of ourselves that language alone can't always find. What comes out of that process is often surprising, sometimes uncomfortable, and frequently more honest than anything we could have arrived at by talking.
Each workshop is psychologically informed and held with care. You won't be pushed. You won't be assessed. You will be given real space — to experiment, to not-know, to make something that is entirely yours.
I collaborate with artists and facilitators working across mediums — film, photography, printmaking, writing, and beyond — bringing their creative expertise into the room alongside my clinical training. Together we design and deliver experiences that range from half-day sessions to full weekends, depending on what the work calls for and what you need. No two workshops are the same. They typically range from a half-day to a weekend experience.
I bring to all of it everything I've carried across two careers: fifteen years as an artist and filmmaker who used creative practice to sit with difficult human experience, and clinical training as a therapist who understands what that experience needs in order to move. These two things, together, are what make the room feel different.
I have particular experience working with neurodiverse artists — people whose ways of seeing, thinking, and making are often their greatest creative strengths, and who benefit from a space that is built around them rather than asking them to fit a neurotypical mould.
