Creative Expression is a charity operating since 2004 and specialising in therapeutic support for vulnerable people and their carers.
Our projects use recognised psychotherapeutic methods enabling us to provide social creative education, and also professionally address traumatic issues and challenging behaviour.
As we are practising with qualified health professionals we are concentrating our service on more severe behaviour, working with clients who are not able or safe to experience otherwise available recreational and educational provisions. Hence we only work with experienced practitioners, who undergo a thorough induction process, regular CPD and review and monthly supervision. Recruitment takes place depending on need with a senior recruitment penal comprising managers, psychologists/psychotherapist and practitioners in several craft and art forms. We work with selected partner organisation where appropriate.
Creative Psychotherapy is a post graduate qualification registered with the Health Professions Council as a psychological therapy, and provides the link between health service and creative intervention/education. With its expertise in enables clients to gain control over their behaviour, to understand their motives and triggers and to develop more balanced and integrative behaviour patterns in order to lead a more successful, ordered and satisfying life.
All our work is monitored, evaluated and fully insured.
