Transforming Lives Through Art
I started my therapeutic business in 2008, responding to a need I saw that wasn’t being met. My experience as an art teacher allowed me to connect with students daily. They would often come to me, sharing their struggles, and I realised I could offer alternative coping skills. This sparked my journey into becoming a therapeutic artist and mentor, leading me to pursue further qualifications and research.
Experience Across Borders
Throughout my career, I’ve worked nationally and internationally with women and children from diverse backgrounds. While my focus has been predominantly on these groups, I’ve also had the privilege of working with men and teenage boys. My community interest company in Bolton helped hundreds of students facing personal issues that affected their attendance. By incorporating alternative coping techniques, I supported them in sharing their struggles, which allowed them to release traumas.
Supporting Those in Need
I am proud to have pioneered the first holistic art studio in the Middle East, providing support for students, refugees, and women who had escaped difficult situations. Over the years, I have developed alternative coping mechanisms for people of all ages, genders, religions, and ethnicities. One thing remains constant: hurt people, hurt people. My approach is about genuinely loving people back to life through creativity, active listening, non-judgment, and patience—sprinkled with a good dose of fun!
Passion for Creativity
This is who I am. My creative journey has been lifelong and transformative. I was created to be creative, just as we all were. As a child, I used art as an escape from the abuse I faced daily. Art, writing, painting, and music became my forms of escapism. When approached with love and support, these mediums can foster profound, lasting healing for a broken soul and pave the way to a brighter future.
Let’s Heal Together Through Creativity
Creativity allows us to express feelings that word cannot capture. It offers forgiveness for perceived mistakes, reminding us that there are no mistakes in the creative process. It grants us the freedom to grow and to become who we are destined to be. Through a holistic approach, I aim to help those who have flatlined in life find their spark again. Let’s create a path to healing together!
