In a session, we begin with a calming exercise to centre ourselves, followed by guided art activities that encourage self-expression. We’ll use various materials and techniques tailored to your preferences. There’s no judgment or pressure—it’s a space for you to explore and create freely.

While traditional art therapy often involves clinical settings and focuses on diagnosing or treating mental health conditions, holistic art therapy emphasizes a whole-person approach. It’s less clinical, focusing on emotional balance, mindfulness, and personal growth in a supportive environment. It does not act as a tool to diagnose mental health conditions.

Yes! Postpartum group sessions are baby-friendly. You’re welcome to bring your little one along, and the space is designed to be calm, nurturing, and inclusive for mothers and babies.

I know how unpredictable life gets with a little one by your side, I therefore don’t have any fees associated with cancellations. However, you will be given a credit session that you can book when it suits you.  

Yes, all one-on-one sessions are completely confidential to protect your privacy. In group workshops, you are welcome to share your thoughts and feelings if you feel comfortable. I strive to create a safe and supportive environment, and all participants are kindly asked to respect each other’s privacy and uphold confidentiality.
