About me

Deborah Thomas
I am an Integrative Art Psychotherapist based in Wokingham. I work in a person-centred, psychodynamic, and trauma-informed way, using creative methods like art, sand tray, fairy tales, dreams, poetry, clay, music, the body, and puppetry.
“Change happens when one accepts where one is, as opposed to where one wants to be.”
— GESTALT PARADOXICAL THEORY OF CHANGE
My approach
With 4 years of experience in art psychotherapy, I am passionate about helping adults explore their inner world through creative expression. My approach is person-centred, psychodynamic, and trauma-informed, ensuring a safe and empathetic space where you can feel truly heard and understood. Whether we meet face to face or online, I tailor sessions to your unique needs, guiding you gently towards healing, growth, and self-discovery. Art has an incredible power to reveal what words sometimes cannot—together, we’ll unlock those insights to support your journey.
Art psychotherapy offers everything that normal talking therapy offers with the added dimension of accessing the unconscious parts of you, in a safe and contained way.
Providing you with a safe space to relax
All face to face appointments will take place in a relaxing confidential space where you can sit and talk or express yourself creatively.
In-person and remote options
Conveniently located in Wokingham with options for parking. Can’t make face to face appointments? No worries – I’ve got you covered online with Zoom.

Art Psychotherapy
Struggling to thrive
Sometimes it can feel difficult to understand why you are struggling, sometimes the cause is clear. You might be trying to come to terms with something that happened but don't know how. You might be someone who is very much in their head but disconnected from their body. You may have tried talking therapies and not noticed any change in how you feel afterwards. Give art therapy a try and experience a deeper connection to yourself.
I will work with you to help you feel more grounded and at peace with where you are in your life, so that you feel empowered, capable and lighter.
