ARTS PSYCHOTHERAPY The arts are an alternative approach to traditional talking therapy & can provide a deeper insight when it is hard to find the words for your experiences & feelings.  In my sessions, the seven art forms are available for you; * Art * Drama / Puppetry * Sculpture / Clay * Poetry * Sand-play * Music * Bodywork / Movement No previous experience or artistic skill with the arts are needed. As first, the arts might feel weird to use to communicate your needs. To help familiarise yourself with the art materials, I will gently guide you to different media to find the most fitting way to explore your inner & outer world.  SEX POSITIVE THERAPY In additional to my art psychotherapy approach, I also provide sex-positive therapy & work with sexual problems. Using a bio-psycho-social theoretical model, I can provide supportive therapeutic interventions to the following areas; * Gender, Sexual & Relationship Diversity (GSRD) * Queer sex * Kink, Fetish and BDSM practices I can also combine my art psychotherapy practice to provide artistic ways to explore the above areas. SEX WORKER FRIENDLY THERAPIST I fully support sex worker rights, safety & decriminalisation of sex work. I provide low-cost therapy to sex workers (short/long term).  NUM packages (x6 funded therapy sessions) with me are available via the National Ugly Mugs website > mental health support > contact casework team. SOCIAL ACTIVIST THERAPIST Therapy is political & I do not shy away from social topics in therapy. I recognise the collective distress from global injustices, capitalism, mental health issues, social & cultural oppression may affect you in many areas of your life.  I believe therapy is a great way to explore feelings about your own social injustices, by finding ways to resource yourself and manage the discomfort / hardships this may bring. Through this exploration you may find ethical & creative ways to express this outside the therapy room too.
