Online Art Psychotherapy

Reflective, creative, and accessible therapy from your own space, wherever you are in the UK.

Finding Depth at Distance

Working together online allows you to benefit from the richness of engagement that psychotherapy offers, with a greater level of convenience. A full overview of my practice including the themes and concerns I can help with, can be found on the therapy welcome page.

Some benefits of choosing online therapy

​​

  • Sessions are held using Google Meet, which in my experience has proven straightforward, reliable, and secure. You will not require a Google account to use this feature.

​

  • You can set up your own 'therapy space',  according to you preferences.

​

  • Time and money are saved on travel to a therapy space. 

​

  • It is more likely the therapy will fit easily into your schedule. 

​

  • ​You may feel more at ease working from your own environment.

​

  • You can decide on your own art materials to use during the sessions.

What You'll Need

To create a space where the therapy can thrive, a few things are essential for online sessions:

​

  • You’re in a private space, without others present or able to overhear.

​

  • Reliable video connection, with camera on and good visibility—I cannot offer sessions by audio only.

​

  • Art materials available, and a surface to use them safely near your device. 

​

  • A computer or tablet (mobile phones can feel limiting and are generally not suitable).

​

  • A stable head-and-shoulders view, to help us feel present to one another.

​

  • No recording of the session by either of us.

​

  • A willingness to make the session the sole focus of your attention.

​​

​

If, after discussion, we find online therapy isn’t the right fit, I can help you consider alternatives.

Frequency and Duration

The pace and depth of therapy is something we discover together.

​

  • Open-ended work allows for slow unfolding, a space where deeper themes can emerge, take shape, and be worked through over time.

​

  • Short-term therapy may offer focus, clarity, or support around a specific life event or difficulty.

​

  • Weekly sessions (3+ per month) provide the greatest continuity, and I can offer a reduced rate to support this if required.

​

  • Two sessions per month will offer a chance to explore your life at a slower pace.

Making a Beginning

We start with an initial consultation — a space to talk about what’s bringing you to therapy, and whether we feel we can work well together. 

​

You can learn more about my approach to therapy, or return to the main psychotherapy page for an overview.
