Frequently Asked Questions
What art skills do I need ?
None! Just a willingness to explore, the process, not the outcome is important, there is no need to be concerned if what you have created is art or not. Regardless of your artistic experience and age.
What happens in my first session?
Psychotherapy supports a process of change. In our first session we begin to establish what changes you may be seeking and how we might move towards your desired outcome. For clients under the age of 14, the initial session will be with the parent only.
Our sessions are usually conducted online. In-person sessions can be arranged with additional traveling fees.
How does this work online?
I have a wide range of ways of working with clients, depending on your specific reasons for coming to therapy. I will tailor the sessions to suit your individual needs online.
