About the Art Therapist

My name is Christina and I am a qualified Art Therapist, having completed the Master of Art Therapy at La Trobe University (Bundoora Campus).

My clients are those who feel the need to work through an issue or issues which may be hindering them from living a fulfilling life. You may have a family issue, a mental illness, be going through a rough patch, or simply want to improve your quality of life.

I have also worked with people who have intellectual disabilities and children who have behavioural issues at school. I hold a Working With Children Check.

My experience involves both art therapy and counselling.
