A little bit about me:

Hello and  welcome to Patchwork Therapy 

My name is Amber, and I am a Creative Arts Psychotherapist based in Northamptonshire. 

I am a registered Dramatherapist with the Health & Care Professions Council (HCPC), and I am guided by the HCPC and British Association for Dramatherapy (BADth) ethical standards of practice. 

I qualified in 2025 with a Masters Degree in Drama and Movement Therapy at The Royal Central School of Speech and Drama (CSSD). 

My practice is client-centred, and I will always work at your pace. I believe that you are the expert in your own experience, and my role is to offer a safe, supportive and non-judgemental space where you can explore what feels important to you.

I recognise that everyone is different, and there is no one way of doing or being in therapy. I will work collaboratively with you, adapting sessions to your individual needs, preferences and ways of communicating.

Why did I become a Dramatherapist? 

I chose to become a Dramatherapist because I believe everybody has the right to access support that feels accessible. 

 We all communicate, process and express ourselves in different ways, and I believe therapy should reflect that.

This is what drew me to Dramatherapy. It offers a flexible and creative way of working that can be tailored to each individual. Through the use of creativity, play, stories, imagery, movement, role and metaphor, there are different ways to explore and express experiences that may sometimes feel difficult to put into words.

Ultimately, I became a dramatherapist because I believe that everyone deserves the opportunity to be heard, understood and supported in a way that works for them. 

Creativity can open up possibilities, offer new perspectives and help us connect with parts of ourselves that may otherwise remain difficult to access.

Who do I work with? 

I accept self-referrals, family referrals and professional referrals.

If therapy is something you are interested in, either for you or someone you care about, please get in touch, and we can explore what you may be looking for. 

What are sessions like? 

I offer both one-to-one and group sessions, tailoring the approach to meet different needs.
