About Luminate Art Therapy
Luminate Art Therapy offers art psychotherapy for children, young people, and adults. A qualified art psychotherapist with several years' experience, the practitioner is registered with both the HCPC (Health and Care Professions Council) and BAAT (British Association of Art Therapists).
Art therapy is a form of psychotherapy that can be a helpful way of expressing what can't always be put into words. Sessions are available on a one-to-one basis, in groups, or as dyadic art therapy for family relationships. Dyadic work can help improve communication and address relational difficulties. Most people begin with six weekly sessions, with progress reviewed after that.
Luminate Art Therapy can help you explore and understand what is causing discomfort, and process trauma or painful experiences. Areas of support include anxiety, depression, stress, low self-esteem, abuse, and building confidence. The service also offers supervision for art therapists.
If you're looking for a creative, non-verbal approach to understanding yourself and improving your wellbeing, art therapy provides a space where artistic skill is not required—your work won't be judged, only explored.
