Creativity belongs to everyone

I design and deliver wellbeing programmes across healthcare, community and workplace settings - helping people build confidence, connection and calm.

Creative Wellbeing

Ongoing creative sessions designed around wellbeing - building confidence, calm and connection through art, at each person's own pace.

Creative Mentoring

1:1 creative mentoring, shaped entirely around your own goals and pace - a space to explore, build confidence and develop your practice

Approach

Art programmes shaped around people, not outcomes - helping build wellbeing, confidence and connection in communities, workplaces and beyond

Wellbeing

I love using creativity as a way of listening - talking with people, pulling out what matters to them, then shaping that into something made together. It often starts with simple conversations - what people miss, love and want more of - building trust rather than instruction.

Confidence

Most of my work is shaped in partnership with participants rather than delivered at them - sessions respond to what people want to explore on the day, built entirely around each person's own pace and goals. There's no hierarchy - I learn from participants as much as they learn from me. That approach creates a safer, more joyful space where mistakes are just part of learning.

Connection

Facilitating creative expression as a way to build genuine bonds -  between individuals, within groups, and across communities that don't always have easy access to creative opportunity.

Kind Words

  • "Thank you for all your efforts with some of our very vulnerable students. We very much appreciate your calm creativity and resilience."
  • "A big thank you for all you are doing at our group. I think we all appreciate you very much. You are a great teacher and meet people just where they are at - that is such a lovely gift." 
  • "Thank you for being an amazing art (and life) mentor. Means a lot, all you've done for me."
  • "We are all very lucky to have such a talented, inspirational and motivating teacher... beneficial not just from an art point of view, but for the soul."
  • "My daughter who struggles with her mental health but loves art, sat with me and did her own drawings and paintings while I was online with you - it was wonderful to be able to share this with her."
  • "I found your advice revolutionary - I realised there is a connection between my modest art creations and the way I feel."
  • "I was inspired by others on the course who shared their projects done in their own time. I can do this too — I can let go of needing to be perfect and just try, and that's liberating."
  • "It certainly helped me relax after work and took my mind away from it. I didn't want to stop after I started!"
  • "One hour a week of protected me-time absolutely had an impact on my well-being. I looked forward to Tuesday evenings, and found my mind could switch off from the stresses of work and life."
  • "I notice things more. I look at nature, architecture and patterns. I look up and appreciate my surroundings much more, as if seeing them for the first time. This too slows me down and is good for my well-being."
