This process can be particularly beneficial for those who find it challenging to express their emotions through words alone. By participating in art therapy, clients have the opportunity to gain new insights into their emotional world, work through difficult experiences and foster personal growth.

Beyond Traditional Therapy

Unlike traditional therapy, Carol-Anne doesn’t adhere to a strict outline. Instead, she strives to create a nurturing space where clients can freely engage in the creative process. Whether it's painting, drawing, sculpting or even simple outdoor sketching sessions, the focus is on the therapeutic benefits of artistic expression rather than achieving specific artistic goals.

Clients often find joy and relief in the act of creating alongside Carol-Anne, whether they are processing complex emotions, navigating life transitions or simply seeking a moment of calm and reflection. The process of making art can become a form of communication, allowing clients to explore and articulate thoughts and feelings that may be difficult to express verbally.
