Therapist, Facilitator and Artist.
I believe passionately in the transformative power of creativity.
By combining art and expression within therapy, I aim to help people to understand the narrative of their lives, to find healing and move toward a life of freedom and wholeness.

HELEN
As a therapist and an artist, I am fascinated by the transformative power of storytelling in revealing the subconscious; the true stories we encounter when we reach a little deeper.
The very act of creating feels like a liminal space to me, as is the process I am taken on through the themes that emerge in my thread, ink and paint. I strive for honesty in moving beyond the narrative I want to tell, and into the true stories that emerge from within through self reflection, usually finding expression through the metaphor within the landscape.
After living many years cross culturally in Africa and North America, I have now settled on the edge of Dartmoor, Mid Devon. Here I am marrying together my love for art as a therapeutic medium alongside pursuing my own artistic expression. The Moor is a rich source of inspiration for me in this season and it's where I find myself being drawn time and time again; swallow, swift, tor, lichen, Labrador, contor, path, riverway.
