About Irene

I have 16 years of experience as an art psychotherapist including 10 years as a supervisor. I work with adults, young people and families and support young people in foster care. My practice is integrative, shaped by the natural environment, eco-art therapy, archetypal imagery and attachment theory. I work with neurodiversity, trauma, bereavement, anxiety, depression, relationship issues. I have an interest in supporting peri-menopausal and post-menopausal women. The therapy is client-led. My role as art therapist is to be alongside you on your particular journey. I am here to talk with you, to listen to you, to hear you, to bear witness, to sit silently with you or to laugh and to play with you as you navigate life’s deeper and sometimes more difficult moments, or as you discover the hope and joy in rays of light. Together we discover what is needed to help you feel more yourself. I offer an initial meeting at £60.
