"My wish for you is that you continue. Continue to be who you are, to astonish a mean world with your acts of kindness. Continue to allow humour to lighten the burden of your tender heart."

When everything is complicated, your brain and body are crying out for simplicity. You need sky and trees and earth and breath. Breathe in and out, and know that you are breathing in and out. Sit with your back against a tree, and know that the world has your back. You are a part of the world, a child of nature.

The Summer Solstice is here, and its radiant light beckons us towards transformation, renewal, and a fresh start.

As an art psychotherapist and clinical supervisor in private practice, I provide a nurturing, empathetic environment for healing. With extensive clinical experience and a deep understanding of the human experience, I specialize in complex trauma, neurodivergence, and relational issues, working with adults through indoor and outdoor ecotherapy and eco-art therapy sessions to bring insight, relief and peace.

My approach is totally tailored to you. You are unique, and so should your therapy be.

I also support psychotherapists and psychotherapy trainees as a dedicated supervisor and personal therapist.

As we welcome the solstice and its high creative energy, I invite you to seize this moment to reassess and redefine your path. Let’s collaborate to create something transformative.

Please feel free to contact me to explore how we can work in harmony with your unique journey.

A Poem

Questions to ask yourself before giving up:
Are you hydrated?
When did you last
glut your thirst
with a handful of spring?

Have you eaten anything
besides emails or your fingernails
in the last three hours? Have you
pulled the protein out of an oak
tree or palmed an avocado
pit this month? Are your forlorn probiotics

languishing on your butter shelf?
Are you dressed? If so, does your skirt
strike matches alight
as you walk by? Can you melt
it a little around your waist
and ribcage? Are you resisting

a dream? Wrestling a dreamless night?
Let yourself
take a bath in your bed
clothes for fifteen minutes,
no pressure to fall asleep. But make sure
to turn off all your beehives
first. At least take them out
of your bedroom.

Have you uncoiled the ropes of your legs
and strung them along the length of the city
today? Have you let a lake or a snow bank
sketch silent letters on your back?
When did you last give away

your unworn clothes, your well-fitting
metaphors? Tell a neighbour or a person across
the coffee shop counter how well
they catch the light.

Have you snugged into a seedpod
in the past couple days? Do you need
a massage? Complete something

smaller than a lichen: return
a library book, or a letter, or a look,
or a relationship you regret. Sew
a button on that’s come loose. Crack
a window. Crack an egg.

Do you feel unattractive? Rub your skin
with smooth stones
or strong magnets. Wear sunglasses.
Take your reflection in
on the surface of a puddle.

Give yourself ten minutes.
Give yourself ten years.
Give yourself an or**sm.
Give yourself a change of seasons.
Give yourself a new lover.
Give yourself a to-do list
written with sidewalk
chalk and hopscotch across it.

Have you been working really hard
shovelling all the sidewalks
of your friendships?
Remember, it takes time
to recover from exertion,
especially when you are a seedling.

Know that your friends want to send help.
They want to send daffodils and their extra hands
to braid your hair. They all want to be deciduous trees
and long semi-coloned sentences for you.
They want to.

YSP

Couldn't be anywhere else really, could you?!

1. Robert Indiana's Love (red blue green) on the rise above the Yorkshire Sculpture Park's big field which sweeps down to the lower lake, past the Chapel on the left and James Turrell's Deer Shelter Sky Space on the right.

2. Into Being by Laura Ellen Bacon
This large willow sculpture rises sinuously up to the windows of the Chapel. It was built in situ in the Spring, and remains here until September the sonethingth. Get your skates on!

Had a really lovely, thought-provoking day in West Bretton yesterday. Really beautiful day, just one brief rainshower that raced up the big field and then vanished towards Leeds.

YSP is a beautiful setting, and there's always a lovely crowd. I get here regularly and enjoy the changing seasons. I remember what used to be where, and I see things weathering and settling in. Always a treat ✨️
