Perry Psychotherapy Art therapy for children & young people online and in person. I offer psychodynamic art therapy primarily to children & young people but also work with adults.

My role is to help people express thoughts and feelings they may not be aware they have (often known as unconscious thoughts). Often these unconscious thoughts affect our mood and behaviour in ways that we aren't even aware of, and which may not always make sense to us. Through creative activities and play, art therapy can gently help people to explore these deeper feelings, helping them process emotions, reduce anxiety, and gain a better sense of themself. Art therapy provides a safe and supportive space where they can express what's on their minds in a way that feels natural and comfortable. I am a fully qualified Art Psychotherapist registered member of BAAT (British Association of Art Therapists), HCPC (Health and Care Professions Council) & ICO (Information Commissionerโ€™s Office)

โœจ A little insight into our Creative Coping Club this week! ๐ŸŽจ๐Ÿชž

This week we focused on being kind to ourselves. The children decorated their own mirrors and learned about positive affirmations as part of their wellbeing and regulation toolkit. ๐Ÿ’š

We then used our mirrors to practise saying kind things to ourselves, a simple way of encouraging positive self-talk and building confidence.

And thenโ€ฆ it was time for some FREE PAINTING! ๐ŸŽจ๐Ÿ™Œ
The kids absolutely LOVED having the freedom to get messy, experiment and simply explore through art.

Itโ€™s so lovely to have a space where children can be themselves, get creative and explore their emotions without worrying about getting things โ€œrightโ€. ๐ŸŒˆ

๐Ÿ’šA little group update:
Our Creative Coping Club groups have now changed from a maximum of 6 children to 4 children. This allows us to create a calmer environment and ensure there is enough space, attention and support for each child.

๐Ÿ“… Booking in advance is recommended to avoid disappointment! Book via the website or link in bio

โœจ A little look inside our recent therapeutic art groupsโ€ฆ ๐ŸŽจ๐ŸŒˆ

Over the last few weeks at Rainbow Rascals weโ€™ve been exploring feelings, building confidence and learning practical coping strategies through creativity.

From creating worry monsters and rainbows of feelings, to making breathing wands, coping bracelets and sharing special moments in our Parent & Child Creative Wellbeing Group, every activity has been thoughtfully designed by a HCPC Registered Art Psychotherapist to support emotional wellbeing in a fun, engaging and creative way.

Art gives children a language when words feel difficult. Through making, playing and creating together, they can begin to understand their emotions, build resilience and develop skills theyโ€™ll take home with them.

๐Ÿ’š๐ŸŽจNo artistic ability is neededโ€”just curiosity and a willingness to create.

๐Ÿ“ Current services at Rainbow Rascals, Livingston:
๐ŸŽจ 1:1 Art Therapy (Children, Teens & Adults)
๐Ÿ‘จโ€๐Ÿ‘ฉโ€๐Ÿ‘ง Parent & Child Creative Wellbeing Sessions
๐ŸŒˆ Therapeutic Creative Groups

๐Ÿ“ I also offer 1:1 Art Therapy from my Edinburgh city centre practice at 45 Frederick Street.

โœจ Free Meet & Greets available.
