I have to say that it was an enjoyable and rewarding experience. It helps you to think about those difficult aspects of our working lives and how we can address them. It is also great fun and not threatening in any way. Also you do not have to have any previous experience in art or be artistic at all!”

I wasn’t sure what to expect, really wasn’t sure if it would help. Amazed – I have actually painted at home after a bad day at work (using my son’s paints!) and it helped. I would definitely recommend art therapy – especially to doubters like me.Palliative Care SpR
