About Me.
Hello! Im Jess (she/her) an HCPC & BAAT registered Art Psychotherapist and visual artist based in the Cotswolds. My approach is client-led and is offered through an intersectional, anti-oppressive lens. I aim to offer a space that draws on creativity and curiosity alongside therapeutic thinking.
​
Prior to my art therapy training I worked in schools supporting children and young people with a range of social, emotional, mental health and physical needs. I have continued working with children and young people throughout my training working within education, NHS and charitable settings.
​
The dual perspective of artist and therapist is important to me as I am interested in the relationship between and amongst people, places and things.
