STOP PRESS! The Doodle Group that I developed for
St Micheals Hospice wellbeing programme will be featured at the Marie Curie Research conference Feb 5-9 2024

My art practice
has three elements
exploration - relationship - transformation
As a hands-on maker, I work intuitively with materials in response to the landscape.
​
I reflect this in my practice as an art therapist. I work in groups with adults living with emotionally unstable personality disorder at a therapeutic community within the NHS.
I have 5 years experience of working in palliative care, where I developed the Doodle Group. A therapeutic and rehabilitative patient group within the wellbeing programme.
