Collages ~ To See is to be Free!
There is a well of wisdom within you waiting for you to tap into it. Collages are a simple and powerful DIY therapy that accesses this source. By creating a collage you can learn your personal language of symbolism so you can bypass the conscious mind and receive guidance direct from your innate wisdom. This simple method helps you to become aware of what is keeping you stuck and what your choices are, so you can make new choices and therefore enjoy new outcomes. Have a one on one session or attend a group. One on one sessions can be carried out through skype or phone and can incorporate life coaching.

- I don’t trust anyone enough to let them help me
- I can’t get to the bottom of what’s wrong
- I am stuck in a rut
- I can’t see the wood for the trees
- I am going round and round in circles
- I want to feel better
- I automatically take everyone else’s advice on board and assume I can’t help myself
- I want to feel hope again
- I have received some damaging “therapy” in the past
- I would like to explore expressive art but feel too inhibited
"I had put a hedgehog in the middle of my collage: Laura asked me to describe what a hedge hog is to her as if she had never seen one before. I told her “ they are small prickly creatures – only they don’t mean to be prickly - they are only prickly because they are scared and don’t want anyone to come close to them, but deep down they just want to be friends.” Suddenly I connected this explanation with me; I knew I had been repelling people with my sharpness all my life, but couldn’t stop myself, it was in that moment I realised I did that because I was scared and deep down wanted to be friends with them–My collage helped me discover the source of my key problem and for the first time ever I felt compassion for myself."

This is a very effective modality I discovered in my teens and have developed over the years. I combine my other skills to teach people how to use this method in their home for themselves.
