Hi, I’m Lucinda. Thank you for visiting my website.
I’m an arts therapist who works outdoors in nature with a whole person approach to therapy. My specialist areas are anxiety, depression, stress, trauma, relationship difficulties, attachment, neurodivergence and adoption issues. My clients are generally wanting to feel better about who they are, perhaps more ‘connected’ with themselves, other people and life, and definitely more emotionally balanced, confident and optimistic.
A Dramatherapist by training, I invite all parts of my clients – their mind, body, hands and heart – to express and explore what is happening for them in the here and now, and, if relevant, experiences and memories from the past.
My therapy space is Views Wood on the edge of Uckfield in East Sussex. The natural world offers a deeply restorative environment; it also allows my clients to find aspects of themselves in the materials and processes of the natural world around them which can be explored and understood through talking, somatic (body-based) and expressive exercises. Because we are not relying solely on the narrative of the mind but also what is held in their body and their heart, my clients often find this is a powerful and intuitive way for them to make the changes they are looking for. You don’t need to have any experience of working in this way; I will guide you through the process.
I have over 15 years’ experience as a therapist working with children, adults and families in both groups and individuals. I am influenced by a wide range of clinicians, artists, neuroscientists and thinkers, and my own personal experiences.
