Why are you a member?

Art and Community have always been synonymous in my experience and I have found like-minded creatives at Creatives Inc.

Being Secretary of Creatives Inc has been a socially and educationally rewarding experience,  providing a great sense of belonging and achievement in supporting local artists and the wider community. 

Co-creating in art and health projects, hes led to more confidence in bringing forth ideas. 

Giving my time, and sharing skills reminds me of my value and what I have to offer others.

Tell us about your practice

Combining art and psychotherapy, I provide a safe and therapeutic space for children, adolescents and adults of diverse backgrounds to explore their lived experiences, improve wellbeing, build on strengths and resources and achieve personal growth. I use various art modalities and techniques to facilitate self-expression and reflect on new perspectives while holding a space for connection and healing.

What are you working on?

Future projects for 2026 and beyond include: 

  • Grounded Conversations in Nature - workshops fostering self care and interconnectedness. 

  • Bringing Mobile Art Therapy programs to communities, enhancing accessibility and wellbeing for all individuals.
