I am a Visual Artist, Psychotherapist, and Creative Mentor in south Wales. I live in Newport where my studio is located, and offer psychotherapy and mentoring for adult clients online. My art practice and working with people are both rooted in the same source; a devotion to the weave of psyche and soul, that marries inner or interior life with outer form and expression. At different times in my own journey the respective currents of art and healing have flowed underground as my focus has shifted, always surfacing again to insist that they belong together.
Working in mixed-media drawing and painting, my art explores a reverence for landscape as an expression of the Numinous, particularly in the form of mountains and hills. An elected Professional Member of the Society of Scottish Artists (SSA), my work has appeared in exhibitions including Royal Scottish Academy Annual, Society of Scottish Artists, Visual Arts Scotland, Royal West of England Academy Annual, and other solo/group shows.
On this website you can view galleries of work, and purchase original pieces directly from the shop.
I am an HCPC registered Art Psychotherapist working online with clients across the UK. I offer a Depth Psychology perspective which draws upon Jungian and Archetypal psychology, as well as aspects of Psychoanalytic and Psychodynamic understanding. My approach acknowledges the significance of spiritual aspects of human experience and potential (Transpersonal), and our place within the wider world of Nature (Ecopsychology).

Creative Mentoring
Online sessions with a soul-oriented perspective
For UK and international clients. I offer online Mentoring sessions for individuals seeking nourishing conversations around their own artistic and creative practice. They can be very informal, or we can devise a regular structure of meetings to suit you. This will be of interest to people who share some of my own interests in the relationship between art, psyche, spirituality, and also Nature.
See the Mentoring page for further details. For the differences between psychotherapy and mentoring, see this page.
