Is your child struggling with worry or anxiety? 🎨💚

Our therapeutic art group for children aged 7–10 provides a safe, creative space to explore feelings and build confidence. Through guided art activities, children develop practical tools to help them manage anxiety in everyday life.

✨ Build confidence & coping skills
✨ Weekly themes you can follow at home
✨ Parent guidance included
✨ A toolkit they can keep using

Parents are supported too, with guidance to use at home and the opportunity to follow along with what your child is learning each week, helping reinforce skills beyond the sessions.

By the end of the group, your child will have a toolkit of strategies they can continue using long-term.

Limited spaces available for May– get in touch to book.

“I'm fine.”

How many parents hear this… even when they know something isn’t quite right? Children and teenagers don’t always have the words to explain how they feel.

Art Therapy offers a safe, creative space where young people can express emotions, explore difficult experiences, and feel heard - without pressure to talk before they’re ready.

If your child is struggling with anxiety, low mood, bullying, trauma, or self-esteem, support is available now.

Long CAMHS waiting lists mean many families are left waiting - but your child doesn’t have to.

Anger is a powerful emotion- especially for children and young people who may not yet have the words to explain what’s happening inside.

In art therapy, anger isn’t something that needs to be pushed away or “fixed.” Instead, it becomes something we can explore safely through creativity. Paint, clay, drawing, tearing, building - art gives shape to feelings that might otherwise stay stuck in the body.

When anger can be expressed, seen and understood, it often softens. Beneath it there may be hurt, fear, frustration or a need to feel heard.

Art therapy creates a space where all of those feelings are welcome. 🎨

Sometimes the loudest emotions just need a safe place to land.

A spring clean in the art therapy studio…because the space holding big feelings deserves care too. 🎨 🧼 ✨

In art therapy the environment matters. So alongside the creativity, there’s also the practical work behind the scenes - disinfecting materials, cleaning surfaces, reorganising resources and making sure everything is safe and ready for clients.

A fresh space for fresh conversations, creativity and healing. 🎨🌱

🎄 Digby Brown Christmas Calendar🎄

I was delighted to be invited by Digby Brown to help judge their Christmas Card Competition this year. Each entry came from talented artists across different Headway Groups who support adults living with brain injuries — a community that will always hold a special place in my heart after my seven years with Edinburgh Headway Group.

Art is a remarkable force. It strengthens cognitive pathways, supports rehabilitation, and creates room for expression when words fall short. It can spark memory, soothe overwhelm, open doors to self-understanding, and offer a sense of freedom that’s hard to capture in everyday life. Seeing that creativity shine through each submission was an absolute joy.

A big well done to everyone who entered — your artwork was powerful, thoughtful, and wonderfully full of personality.

✨ Russian Dolls & The Layers We Carry ✨

In the therapy room, Russian dolls become more than pretty wooden figures, they turn into a roadmap of the self.

Each layer represents a version of us:
🌟 The outer shell — the polished “I’m fine!” mask we show the world.
🌟 The middle layers — the feelings we kind of acknowledge… when the Wi-Fi’s down and we’re left alone with our thoughts.
🌟 The inner core — the tender, hidden truths we protect the most.

Carl Jung might call this exploration a dance with the shadow self—the parts we tuck away because they feel big, messy, or harder to manage. But here’s the good news: peeling back those layers isn’t about exposing weakness. It’s about discovering the whole, wonderfully complex human inside.

In art therapy, Russian dolls help map out these layers in a safe, imaginative, and hands-on way. It’s emotional due diligence with a creative twist.

Whether the outside looks brave, bubbly, quiet, unsure, or “totally chill,” there is always more beneath the surface—and that deeper self is worth meeting.

🎨 Ready to do some gentle, layer-by-layer exploration?
Let’s unpack the inner world, one doll at a time.
