I made something for the little ones… and now I’m making something for YOU 🤍🎨🧠

“Creating My Safe Place” is my children’s therapeutic art workbook, created for little minds and their big feelings - and it’s been out in the world for a while now (still feels surreal saying that 🥹). It’s available on Amazon if you’ve got a little person who might need it.

But behind the scenes, I’ve been quietly working on something new...

“Creating My Calm Before Sleep” 🌙
A therapeutic creative workbook for ADULTS - specifically designed for those of us whose brains don’t switch off easily at bedtime.
This one is really personal!

As a certified therapeutic art coach, a qualified MHFA, and someone who’s lived with (diagnosed) clinical OCD since I was 11… I know what it feels like to lie there with a mind that just won’t be quiet 🫠 The overthinking, the looping thoughts, the mental noise, the anxiety, the compulsions.
So this book is being created with real intention based on trusted research and experience.

It’ll be a mix of mindful colouring, gentle guided activities, journal prompts, mind-dump pages and much more. Something you can reach for instead of your phone or the TV remote, to help you slow down, unload the day, and hopefully drift off a little easier and for longer.

I’m pouring a lot into this one… and hoping to have it finished and out in the world by the time baby arrives 🤍🤞🏻

In the meantime my children’s workbook is there if you need it, and this one is coming soon 🙂

Use this the next time your little one has a meltdown or is suffering overwhelm/overstimulation 🧠

Art and simple breathing go hand in hand when it comes to calming little minds.

This is such an easy exercise to help kids slow down, regulate, and feel more in control of their big feelings.

It’s something I use all the time - at home and within my creative therapeutic work with children 🎨

(It's also a little peek into the kind of tools I include in my children’s creative wellness workbook 🎨🧠 )

Save this for when you and the children need a calm moment ✨️

"Another Valentine’s Day together… and I still would"

I’ve been quietly working on some things new and fun - I’m now designing greeting cards for Thortful 🖌

This is my first Valentine’s card available: cheeky, honest, and perfect for long-term love that still deserves a laugh.
There are a few designs up already, with more on the way - all created alongside my creative wellness work, therapeutic art resources, and workshops (those aren’t going anywhere!).

Christmas Cards With Purpose 🎄🧠

This year, 25% of every pack of my christmas cards sold will be donated to Mind, a charity that provides vital mental health support across the UK. As a Mental Health First Aider and Creative Wellness Coach, supporting wellbeing is at the heart of my workshops and workbook resources, so it felt only right that these cards help make a difference too.

Each 10×10cm card is created from my original hand-painted (or drawn) artwork, featuring colourful, festive, animal illustrations 🎨

Sold in packs of 5 for £6, they’re the perfect way to spread festive cheer while also supporting a cause that’s incredibly meaningful.

(The 5 will be a random selection of designs)

Orders can be placed via the link in my bio.
All orders will be sent by the Royal Mail.
