Jodie is a Manchester based Artist and Art Psychotherapist, registered with the HCPC. She has worked with Adults with mental health difficulties since qualifying in 2009. She has experience of working in a busy adult mental health service as part of a multidisciplinary team, providing therapeutic interventions to a client group with severe to complex needs, as well as working on a variety of Art for Wellbeing projects within the wider community.

Jodie has been enthusiastically creating ever since she was old enough to hold a pencil. She is a practicing figurative artist working in a variety of mediums. Jodie incorporates surreal and symbolic elements into her figurative work, allowing emotions to be articulated and enabling the construction of a narrative around the subject. She values her own creative practice and sees it as essential to her own wellbeing, enriching her personal development and informing her work with others.
