Excellent workshop today for parent carers. Full of emotion, laughs and lots of different art techniques. We have 2 more booked and will be booking more. Highly recommended. Helene Torr, Notts County Council
Myself and 2 colleagues attended a 2 day training session with Clare, which focused upon the principals and ethos behind Art therapy. Clare was extremely welcoming and knowledgable of her field and delivered the sessions with such insight and passion. We left the sessions full to the brim with new knowledge, ideas and reflections. Her studio was a great space for art, broadly resourced, and also triggered our intrigue and curiosity. Would highly recommend to any professional, wishing to expand their skill set and develop their understanding of therapeutic Art.
I wanted to express my thanks to you for your support during my therapy journey. Through the exploration and art. I have learnt so much about myself and my life. Which has led to me feeling more content and having more confidence at work and life in general. Yours gratefully Lisa
Clare at Imagine Arts Therapy is a fantastic art therapist. She masterfully combines both psycho therapy and art . She is highly professional and super talented art therapist. Through our sessions, I also discovered how therapeutic art can be. Sometimes, doing talking/reasoning/emotional awareness work isn't enough, and art gives you a fresh perspective and an opportunity to express yourself through a different channel/technique. Thank you Clare for the most amazing and healing art therapy sessions on my journey of self-discovery.
I am a State Registered Dramatherapist, and I have worked with Clare over the last year, through Imara CIC, where Clare has worked as an Art Therapist. Imara supports children and young people who have made a disclosure of sexual abuse. Her approach to working with young people who have survived trauma and abuse is gentle, imaginative and inspiring. She engaged children and young people in a creative process where they had the opportunity to take a lead in their own healing process. It was wonderful to see what an effect her work had. I have also had the pleasure of jointly facilitating staff team-building with Clare. Participants reported that the day was enjoyable, relaxing and helped break down barriers in the team. I would definitely recommend Clare as an individual and group therapist, staff trainer and workshop leader. I hope to work with her again very soon!
Clare's art provision has enabled patients a means of expression, communication and processing information that does not rely on verbal communication. Some patients are unable to access talking therapies, or can only reach a certain point of understanding through verbal communication. Art can provide an alternative means which is invaluable.
