The Creative Imagination, Play and Wellbeing

We all know what it’s like to feel stuck for ideas or be unable to express ourselves, it can be so frustrating. Although when we engage in creative activities we can become more open to different ideas and emotional states. The world of the imagination can unlock thoughts and feelings with ease and flow not always possible with words alone. Allowing resolution and change through creative processing that feels natural. Mindscape utilises approaches from psychotherapy, art therapy, play therapy, and expressive psychotherapy.

Mindscape’s expressive psychotherapy approach provides an empathetic space for you to reflect on your concerns, where you can develop improved self-awareness and positive strategies for wellbeing. With psychotherapy, the crucial importance is the therapeutic relationship between the person and their therapist. It’s the agent for change, with the therapist being a guide to help the person during their journey of self-discovery, play, and healing.

Sessions provide a safe, therapeutic and empathetic space to explore any concerns with a non-judgmental approach. We use a variety of psychological therapies, including psychodynamic psychotherapy, art psychotherapy, play therapy, cognitive-behavioral therapy, DBT, systemic family therapy, person-centered psychotherapy, positive psychology, and solution-focused and mindful informed approaches.
