A big myth that keeps a lot of people from getting help...

Worrying about being judged is incredibly common. Truth is, therapy isn't about finding your flaws or magnifying past mistakes. It's about being met with curiosity, care, and respect. It's a space for you to explore your thoughts, feelings, and experiences without needing to perform or prove yourself.

Just show up as you are, and we'll take the next step together.

A lot of the materials we use in art therapy (including clay!) invite us to slow down, to feel, to shape something with our hands.

There's a real magic in this ✨

A gentle reminder: balance is something we practise, not something we achieve.

When things are feeling 'off', how do you respond?

The world can seem like a scary place right now.

Consider this an invitation to make art, or to be in nature, or to connect with loved ones, or to breathe slowly.... Whatever it is that makes you feel grounded.

Children don’t always have the words for what they’re feeling.
Art therapy offers a safe, creative way to explore emotions, build regulation, and feel understood.

Let's play: 'This or That?'

Wet materials can invite flow, emotion, and letting go, while dry materials can feel more controlled and containing. In therapy, there’s no “better” choice - only what feels safe and supportive for you in the moment. What feels grounding and expressive one day might shift the next. Which would you choose today?

First myth to bust for 2026!

In reality, confidentiality is a core part of therapy, and your privacy is deeply respected. What you share in sessions stays there, with only very limited legal exceptions that are explained clearly at the start. This also extends beyond the therapy room — if I see you out in the community, I won’t acknowledge you unless you acknowledge me first. That way, you stay in control of who knows and when. Therapy is your space, and your choice.
