Special expertise
I am a creative arts therapist who works multimodally - that is, I value and encourage the use of all forms of creativity as a way of expressing. I have experience working alongside children & young people in hospitals, delivering creative connection programs for seniors and working with adults navigating periods of transition in their lives - following a major change, knowing or diagnosis.
Currently, my work focuses on providing Creative Art Therapy for adults with ADHD, Autism or ADHD/Autism (AuDHD).

An experienced facilitator and service designer, as Wanna Art About It, I run workshops that build skills in creative confidence and emotional culture. I am an accredited Emotional Culture Deck practitioner and have a Diploma of Leadership and Management. I am particularly interested in working with businesses on strategic design, innovation, wellbeing and leadership development.
