* WHO AM I?

I am a qualified art therapist and mindfulness practitioner based in London.

I believe that everyone is innately creative. Most of the time, our minds (or ego) tell us otherwise. You might be familiar with the thoughts "I am bad at drawing" "I can never make art" "I cannot even draw a line", "I was never good at art".

I passionately believe that the act of art-making and creativity can be an act of self-care and a way of nurturing ourselves. When done in a safe and trusting space, art-making leads to healing and new ways of thinking as it connects people to their own limiting beliefs, narratives, self-critic and other habits and patterns that might no longer be serving us anymore.

Engaging in these creative workshops doesn't require any artistic talents or qualifications - it is truly a safe, and non-judgmental space where there is no right and wrong. In a world where we are constantly judging and labeling behaviors and actions as good or bad, art therapy offers relief from that way of thinking.

I look forward to connecting with you!
