My name is Leena, I hold a passion for creativity, nature, yoga, and healing through the arts.

I studied on the The MA Art Psychotherapy Practice Northern program in Sheffield. I am a member of the British Association of Art Therapists, and registered with the HCPC Health Professions Council.

I offer a wide selection of services ranging from individual Art Therapy to Community Art based  projects geared towards health and wellbeing.

Over the past few years I have worked with people within various settings, both within the community and as part of an organisation.

I have the experience and knowledge to hold a group safely, while still allowing the freedom for expression, imagination, and creativity to flow.

                                          My Passion for Art in Nature & with Nature

As we have evolved into the human race we are slowly losing our natural connection to the earth. The terms ‘on-line, plugged in, bad reception,’ are all too familiar in society today. We are connected to the world of technology and man-made, mass manufactured objects. Thinking about this artificial connection I have explored our natural and spiritual connection to the earth. Our natural ‘five bar reception’ has become ‘a lost signal’ over the last few hundred years.  Where can we go to get a good signal? And do we balance our every growing need for technology with our natural instinct with Earth.

An energy force runs through the world it is universal, it is life, be it plant, water, mineral or animal we all have a connection to it.

Looking after our internal health and wellbeing through various types of therapy (art, music, dance and traditional talking therapies) and looking after Mother Earth, by living in a more eco-friendly manner, have come to be parallels with each other. In the past fifty years we have and are still becoming more and more aware of our mental health needs, along with the health needs of our planet. By using the earth as our therapy room and the things we find as our art materials, tools and props we are already reducing our carbon footprint but also reconnecting to Earth….

I have a signal!

Go with an open mind, love in your heart, a smile on your face and happiness will follow you.

Love, peace and happiness…

Find it within.
