One-on-One
Art Psychotherapy sessions with children and adults
Service Description
Hi, my name is Giovanna. I’m a qualified art psychotherapist and I love working with children as well as empowering adults. I use storytelling, painting, and art psychotherapy techniques, such as emotional freedom technique, cognitive behavioural therapy, and art-making to understand how the mind works. I have a special interest in child trauma, which if not treated continues into adulthood and is the cause of many relationship problems. I’m an author of adult novels and children’s books. My Fairy series focuses on body image, self-esteem, fear and more. My bedtime series aids peaceful sleep. I make my characters speak to the child so the child can relate to their feelings and together we find a way to make the book character feel better. My academic background is in Community service, Art Psychotherapy, Education, Training, and Assessment. My career background is in HR, Training and Development, and mentoring youths in their career goals. If your teen feels stuck or your young child is not coping well with emotions, a one-on-one session will help them. Art therapy taps into the subconscious, which helps the child to interpret, express, and manage emotions. This blended workshop doesn't require artistic skills, just creativity and imagination. We don’t want children or adults to lose their ability to imagine and be creative, s they will have lost a precious tool that will help them later in life to creatively deliver solutions for us all.
