What is Connecting Space?
Connecting Space offers creative therapy, training, support and a place to connect. It is a space designed to activate greater depth connections. By being part of this creative connecting space there is the potential to meet others without the personal baggage that so hampers ordinary relationships. We encourage active self-knowledge rather than head knowledge alone, with the hope that you will find new and better ways of relating.
What is Creative Space?
Creative Space is creating space in a workshop / group environment to explore yourself in relationship with others, using methods from psychodrama, dramatherapy and art therapy.

I call myself a “relational therapist” because, whoever we are, we must relate in some way to others and to our environment.
Much of my training is in the Creative Therapies, which includes Gestalt, Drama therapy and Psychodrama. Working in this way opens space to move, grow and change. Over the last 5 years I have increased my theoretical study into DID (dissociative identity disorder) and PTSD (post traumatic stress disorder). Family dysfunction and childhood trauma cause conflicts later on in life, particularly within intimate relationships.

I am a creative therapist and am from a Person Centred base.
I currently work with a GP practice and independently offer therapy to individuals (adults) couples and young people. I supervise and mentor both trainee and qualified counsellors. My professional development is continuous. I recently attended Psychodrama training and in 2008 will be undertaking a certificate in this area.
