Art Therapy Adelaide

During your art therapy session, a trained art therapist guides the session so that you can create artwork, reflect on your artwork and use artwork to process your thoughts and emotions.

In your session, you will engage in creative processes—such as coloring, painting, sculpting, or collage—within a safe, supportive environment. I provide guidance while you explore feelings and experiences through your artwork. The process can be meditative and calming, helping you focus on the present moment, externalize emotions, and gain new perspectives.

Art therapy is useful for anyone seeking growth and insight. It is especially useful for people dealing with anxiety, depression, PTSD, grief and stress, as well as life purpose and career coaching.

. Benefits include improved emotional expression, confidence, and coping skills.

No! You do not need any artistic skill or experience to enjoy and benefit from art therapy.

In fact, it is often a bit easier for non-artists during the initial sessions as art therapy focusses on the process, not the final artwork or outcome.

You do not need any artistic talent—art therapy isn’t about producing a masterpiece, but about self-expression and finding meaning through creativity.

Art therapy offers a non-verbal way to process emotions, reduce stress, build self-awareness, and enhance problem-solving. It can be especially helpful for people who struggle to put feelings into words. As a complement to talk therapy, it can improve emotional regulation, foster resilience, and support personal growth. Evidence and case studies cited in the article show reduced anxiety and trauma symptoms and gains in confidence and emotional regulation.

If you choose to begin art therapy online sessions as a course, there are a few steps:

1. Begin with a 15 minute discovery session to check if we are a good fit.

2. If you pay for the course in advance, I will send you out a FREE art therapy kit, containing art equiptment and paper.

3. You can book your session and then we will meet on Zoom.

Career coaching is a professional service that helps people clarify, plan, and move forward in their careers through structured conversations, tools, and actionable guidance.

Rather than giving orders or choosing a career for you, a career coach partners with you to help you make informed decisions, build confidence, and take strategic steps toward your goals.

I use art therapy and coaching techniques to help with:

• Identifying strengths, values, interests, and skills

• Exploring career options or career changes

• Setting clear, realistic career goals

• Improving résumés, cover letters, and LinkedIn profiles

• Preparing for interviews and salary negotiations

• Navigating workplace challenges or burnout

• Creating action plans for growth or transition

In one on one sessions we will meet in person or online.

I blend traditional career coaching assessments, Ikigai life purpose therapy and art therapy exersizes to give you a deep understanding of the best career for you.

I then offer support to gain your ideal career using art therapy, such as resume, branding, and referrals to business supports.

Career coaching is useful for:

• Students choosing a major or career path

• Early-career professionals building direction

• Mid-career professionals seeking change or advancement

• Professionals returning to work after a break

• Anyone feeling stuck, unfulfilled, or uncertain about work

Career coaching focuses on career decisions, performance, and future goals. Therapy focuses on mental health, emotional healing, and past experiences. I recognise that it is important to live your life purpose to flourish mentally, and so I offer a blend of the two.
