About Me
I am a Glasgow-based art psychotherapist. In my practice, I focus on creating a safe space for each person’s journey of self-discovery, while nurturing self-esteem and resilience.
Having grown up in Lithuania, surrounded by forests and steeped in Baltic folklore, from a young age I was fascinated with art, nature, people and their stories. This is where I found meaning and joy, which led me towards art therapy.
I hold an MA degree in Art Therapy from the University of Hertfordshire and a BA (Hons) in Philosophy from the University of Glasgow. Currently I work with a community arts charity supporting children and families, and I teach an introductory course in art psychotherapy at the University of Glasgow.
I have experience supporting people in a range of settings, including depression and addiction treatment centres and schools. I offer individual, dyadic, and group art therapy sessions for adults and young people.
About My Art Therapy Practice
In my practice, I seek forms of expression that feel natural, accessible and inspiring for each individual. Alongside traditional visual art-making, we may include mindful breathing and movement, poetry, or working outside with natural materials, depending what best supports the therapeutic process.
My practice is person-centred and psychodynamically informed, rooted in respect for the individual. I aim to make meaningful connections between past and present experiences, holding space for emotions to emerge and be felt. This process may bring a sense of release, deepen self-knowledge, and create space for growth and change.
