About your tutor Cat
I am an artist and graphic designer with more than 20 years’ work experience in the commercial architecture, interior design and marketing fields. When the pandemic hit in 2020, I found myself gravitating back to the visual arts to help manage the challenges of that time. This led me to seek training in arts therapy. I am in my third and final year of the Master of Creative Arts Therapy programme at Whitecliffe College. I have a passion for sharing how the arts can bring healing through self-exploration and expression, and a deeper connection with others.
