My Perspective
I work with adults who are experiencing difficulties in getting on with
their lives in a positive optimistic way. Causes are varied and can be
due to traumatic life events, including immigration, fertility issues,
miscarriage and peri-natal loss, as well as chronic physical and mental
illness, eating disorders, self-harm, depression and low self-esteem as
well as Asperger’s Syndrome.
I offer art psychotherapy to children and adolescents with a wide range
of presenting problems including behavioural and social problems, eating
disorders, self-harm, communication difficulties, low self-esteem,
depression, physical illness, developmental delay, emotional and
psychological difficulties associated with specific learning problems (eg
dyslexia), Asperger’s Syndrome.
My work is informed by psychodynamic, psychoanalytic theory and, as I
am currently undergoing a Jungian training with the Australian and New
Zealand Society of Jungian Analysts (ANZSJA), by Jungian and
post-Jungian depth psychology. I work with adults, adolescents and
children in individual art psychotherapy sessions as well as in groups.
I offer supervision to therapists and other professionals, individually
and in groups.
