Coming Soon: Lines I Couldn’t Speak
This post introduces Lines I Couldn’t Speak, my upcoming reflective art book developed from a series of charcoal drawings made during my experience of postnatal depression. I share the context behind the work and reflect on the importance of creative expression to help make sense of difficult experiences.
Professional Reflection: Mums the Word
Between 2008 and 2012, I facilitated a creative support program for young mothers in Albany, Western Australia. This professional reflection explores the origins of the program, the clinical relevance of arts-based approaches for teenage parents, and how this formative experience helped shape my integrative approach to mental health practice. Drawing on current research and lived experience, the post highlights the enduring value of accessible, creative interventions in early parenting support.
