"""Into The Forest is a charming way to spark important discussions with children about anxiety and an engaging way to share creative, nature-focused strategies to support wellbeing."" – Marina Lewis-King, Programme Manager, A New Direction (award-winning not-for-profit organisation generating opportunities for children and young people to develop their creativity) ""Into The Forest is a precious story, therapeutic gold, as it weaves in the means of becoming more fully embodied through instinctual and sensory connection. The illustrations are fabulous, as we witness the transformation of the forest through the main character."" – Molly Wolfe, Art Psychotherapist, Sandplay Specialist ""Learning to be calm and ‘in the moment’ when experiencing difficult feelings such as loneliness, sadness, worry or fear is a really important core life skill that helps us cope with everyday ups and downs as well as with more stressful situations. This set of 3 therapeutic fairy stories cleverly explains how we can learn to do this through connecting with nature. A truly wonderful set of resources – of value to us all and in particular to those with emotional or mental health difficulties."" – Sarah Temple, GP and author www.allemotionsareok.co.uk"

Her specialist art form is print-making, and her creative practice has brought texture, colour and emotion into a variety of environments, both in the UK and abroad.
