Finding wellness through connection with creativity and nature.

Environmental Arts Therapy and Wellbeing Workshops for Children, Young People and Adults in the South West of England.

Our Approach

We are a community interest company made up of a group of qualified and experienced arts therapists who utilise nature and outdoor natural spaces within therapy. We aim to reach those who would otherwise find accessing mental health services difficult or impossible by providing subsidised, low cost or free therapy. Developing a deeper connection with nature and our creative potential can provide a deeper understanding and connection with ourselves and each other.

“Anna and Lily have skilfully held this group with a lightness of touch and much care and attention. Their gentle and thoughtful facilitation has been an important element in fostering the strong group feeling and remarkable ethos of acceptance, support and kindness we all value and enjoy..”

Providing a safe, accepting and welcoming environment for all…

All human souls are considered equal, and therefore everyones ideas, thoughts and feelings are honoured: diversity and differences are approached with kind curiosity and celebrated.

 

We meet in various natural outdoor spaces and community based settings in and around Bristol…

We find comfortable and suitable spaces both inside and outside that suit the needs of the individuals and groups who access Open Space Alchemy.
