Working with Adults
Art therapy with adults offers a space to pause and pay attention to what is happening beneath the surface of everyday life.
Rather than focusing on making art in a particular way, sessions centre on exploration, reflection, and meaning. Creative work may be used to notice patterns, emotions, memories, or parts of the self that feel difficult to reach through words alone. Sometimes the art is central; other times it sits quietly alongside conversation.
The work is led by the client and unfolds at a pace that feels manageable. There is room for uncertainty, complexity, and things that don’t yet make sense. The therapist offers a steady, attuned presence, supporting curiosity and understanding without rushing or fixing.
Art therapy can be helpful for adults navigating anxiety, low mood, trauma, burnout, identity questions, relationship difficulties, or periods of transition. It can also support those seeking deeper self-awareness or a more compassionate relationship with themselves.
Above all, art therapy provides a confidential, non-judgemental space to be met as you are - allowing time for insight, integration, and change to emerge naturally.
