Today is R U OK? Day 💛
A gentle reminder that every conversation has the power to change a life.

It’s not just about asking the question—it’s about truly listening, holding space and being present. You don’t need to have the answers, just the willingness to care.

Check in with your loved ones, your friends, your colleagues and yourself. Sometimes the smallest act of connection can make the biggest difference.

Attachment Theory: Why Connection Matters

As human beings, we are wired for connection. The bonds we form with our earliest caregivers shape how we see ourselves, others and the world around us.

This is the essence of Attachment Theory, developed by John Bowlby.

These early patterns of safety, trust, or insecurity often continue into adulthood, affecting how we build relationships, navigate conflict and seek support.

Attachment styles are not fixed. With awareness, compassion and healing experiences, we can move toward secure connections that feel safe and nourishing.

In therapy, exploring attachment can open the door to greater self-understanding and healthier relationships, both with ourselves and with others.

Expressive therapy or creative therapy are other names for art therapy. In essence, enjoyable counselling. The client explores difficulties through more expressive (and frequently more revealing) methods like art, play, guided imagery and theatre as opposed to the standard “talk” therapy.

The process, not the result, is what matters.

I love working with people one-on-one and helping them get to that “ah ha” moment. Light bulb moments are my favourite. However I also get such a buzz from facilitating within a group, collectively the energy can amplify one’s experience.

Helping children build emotional regulation is one of the greatest gifts we can offer.
When they learn to notice and name their feelings, they begin to understand that emotions aren’t something to fear — they’re a natural part of being human. With gentle guidance, kids develop the tools to navigate those big feelings in healthy, positive ways, building resilience that lasts a lifetime.

Raising teens today comes with a whole new challenge — screens. Whether it’s gaming, YouTube, or scrolling socials, our “screenagers” live in a digital world that can feel impossible to step away from.

It’s not just about limiting screen time — it’s about teaching balance, boundaries and healthy habits.
When teens learn to pause, engage face-to-face and reconnect with creativity, sport, or family time, they strengthen the very skills that support their wellbeing into adulthood.

Here are 3 tips for supporting your screenager:
1️⃣ Collaborate, don’t control — Involve your teen in setting screen-time agreements so they feel ownership.
2️⃣ Model balance — Let them see you switch off too.
3️⃣ Offer alternatives — Create opportunities for movement, creativity, or connection that are just as rewarding as scrolling.

Screens aren’t going anywhere — but together, we can guide our screenagers to thrive both online and offline.

It’s time to be honest with yourself…
You deserve to feel energised, fulfilled and connected to your zest for life.

But right now, maybe you’re feeling stuck, burnt out and running on empty —
juggling the endless demands of motherhood, household responsibilities, relationships, work, study and everything in between.

You don’t have to keep pushing through alone.
Let’s find your balance again, together.

Art Therapy & Executive Functioning

Executive functioning skills — like planning, organisation, emotional regulation and flexible thinking are essential for success in everyday life. For many people, especially children and neurodiverse individuals, these skills can be challenging to develop.

Art therapy offers a creative, hands-on approach to strengthening executive functioning. Through guided art-making, clients practise focus, sequencing steps, problem-solving and adapting to change all within a safe and supportive environment. These creative tasks also build resilience, patience and self-awareness, helping individuals transfer these skills into home, school and everyday life.

Therapy isn’t just for crisis moments, it’s for anyone who wants to grow.

There’s still a lingering stereotype about who “needs” therapy… that someone must be falling apart, unable to cope or “broken.” This couldn’t be further from the truth.

Seeking support takes courage, self-awareness and a willingness to invest in your emotional wellbeing. Yes, some people arrive at therapy during their lowest moments but just as many come when life is “okay” and they simply want more clarity, stronger relationships, or a deeper connection with themselves.

In my art therapy practice, no problem is too big or small. I meet you exactly where you are, without judgement or expectation and walk alongside you as you navigate whatever season you’re in.

Because therapy isn’t about fixing you, it’s about supporting you to thrive.

Struggling with school refusal?

School refusal is more than just “not wanting to go to school.”
It’s a deeply emotional response that may stem from anxiety, overwhelm, social struggles, learning differences, or life changes.
And for families, it can be heartbreaking, frustrating and exhausting.

This is where art therapy can help.

In a calm, supportive space, children and teens can:

Explore what’s behind their resistance without pressure

Express big emotions through creativity (no need for words)

Build self-confidence and emotional safety

Learn calming strategies and gain a sense of control

Art therapy meets young people where they are — no pressure, no judgment, just space to be seen, heard and gently supported.

If your child is struggling to re-engage with school or is finding it hard to cope emotionally, art therapy could be the gentle circuit breaker you’ve been looking for.

📩 Send me a message to explore whether this could be the right fit for your family.

It’s always an honour to witness the quiet courage it takes to show up, especially when emotions feel tangled or words feel too heavy to find.

Today, on a rainy Thursday afternoon, I had the privilege of sitting beside a 12yo as they took their very first step into art therapy.

Through gentle creative expression, no pressure to get it ‘right,’ just permission to begin.

Here’s to soft beginnings, healing through creativity and the safety of showing up just as you are.
