We currently cannot take any more referrals for low-cost art therapy, massage, acupuncture and shiatsu as the waiting lists are full.
We offer low-cost 1:1 Art Psychotherapy as part of our referral-based therapy programme.
"Art therapy is a tool therapists use to help people interpret, express, and resolve their emotions and thoughts. Patients work with an art therapist to explore their emotions, understand conflicts or feelings that are causing them distress, and use art to help them find resolutions to those issues."
It is for adults living in the London borough of Islington.
It requires a referral by a health professional such as a GP, Nurse Practitioner, Social Worker or Support Worker and is available for up to 26 weeks (6 months). The fees are on a sliding scale from £12 to £35 per session depending on income.

The Zoom creative writing sessions have been great for me in lockdown, especially as I am shielding. Oriana sends us very comprehensive and interesting worksheets so we can prepare beforehand and then read out to each other during the session. It’s so good to connect in this way with fellow writers and get the amazing encouragement from Oriana and members of the group. It has been so good to be challenged creatively during this very difficult time and then share our work with familiar faces. Thank you so much Oriana for being so inspirational and considerate.
