If you are serious about writing, it needs to be worked on in conversation with others, as well as on your own. You may have written for a long time, or just be taking a first step to find a safe environment to share your work with someone else. Writing can be such an enriching practice (which may even transform your life), but this doesn't mean it is easy or fulfilling all the way. There are bumps and blocks and tensions... one great way through them is to start to build a community... a good place to start can be to find someone to guide the process of writing and finding ways to support your creativity. I can also signpost to places to go and can guide you to group opportunities and communities, whatever your means.

I am a published poet and fiction writer and have worked as a writing tutor for 5 years. I have an MA in Creative Writing and am studying towards a PhD. I work as a writing mentor for poets and writers from many different backgrounds.
Zusätzliche Informationen
My particular interest is in poetry and prose which explore themes of urban experience and modern life. I also work as a researcher in community arts and give talks on creative writing, film, geography and literature.

As a qualified art therapist and therapist in Narrative Practices, I offer personalized support focused on writing and expression for people with learning difficulties or those encountering obstacles in their academic, social and professional paths. In addition, I support the realization of projects with a creative and structured approach.

What I offer:
• Creative and interactive process: My sessions are based on moments of discussion and creativity, encouraging personal and expressive exploration.
• Concrete Support: Whether it is for homework or the implementation of a professional project, I am here to support you.
• Diverse Skills: I have a variety of skills that I combine with sessions if necessary, particularly in web design, marketing, video, project management and homework help.

My Values and Principles:
1. We are all “multi-stories”: Our lives are woven from our own stories and those of others.
2. Your Expertise: You have the best knowledge of your own life.
3. The person is never the problem: They are engaged in a problematic relationship with someone or something.
4. Active response to problems: We never remain passive in the face of difficulties - our response, whatever it may be, is a form of action.

I am here to support you with empathy and professionalism. If you wish to explore, learn or simply receive personalized support, do not hesitate to contact me. Together, we will explore the most enriching solutions for your journey and we can work towards your goals, whether they are academic, creative or professional.
