Create. Learn. Grow.
Hi, I’m Claire…
I am a qualified teacher and have been working with children and young people for 25 years. More recently, I have completed 2 years of counselling training because I have seen the challenges that some young people face in school.
My mission is to provide a nurturing, non-judgemental space for young people to come and enjoy time being creative. Science shows us that nature and art are good for our brains and wellbeing. As I love both of those things, it seems like a great place to start helping others.
I have the training and experience to meet young people where they’re at and to help them and those around them to understand how to support their emotional wellbeing. I am passionate about helping young people to be themselves and to advocate for what they need in order to be happy and healthy.
If you like art, and live near North Oxfordshire, come and join me, I’ll probably be in the workshop with my watercolours,
Claire
Supporting young people’s
educational & emotional wellbeing
through creativity and nature
I offer 1:1 nature-based creative sessions that combine art and gentle therapeutic support to help young people thrive outside of the traditional school environment. With my background in teaching, counselling and art, I create a nurturing space where young people can express themselves, build confidence, and reconnect with their strengths, discovering new ways to grow and succeed on their own terms.
Services
All sessions are 1:1 in the workshop and are an hour long (to begin with).
Young people are welcome to bring a trusted grown-up with them for as long as they’d like to.
I support young people between the ages of 6 and 25.
I specialise in supporting neurodivergent young people. I have 2 auDHD daughters who have taught me so much
and led me to create the Wild Art Workshop.
Creative Mentoring Sessions
Time to do whatever creative project grabs your interest in the workshop. You are in charge, I am here to help and support. My main focus is supporting your emotional well-being through kindness and art.

Creative Learning Sessions
These sessions bring in more learning. When you’re ready, we can design a project together and explore something that you are interested in. We will combine lots of areas of learning but all at your pace. I will make suggestions but follow your lead.
£60
Family Support
A space for parents and carers to talk about their experiences. A place to process what has happened and where you find yourselves. This can be through art, talking or a mixture of the two.
£60
Sessions can sometimes be funded by school or EOTAS packages. Do get in touch if you think your young person would benefit from Wild Art Sessions.
