As part of the therapy we make use of painting, drawing and other creative processes to communicate and gain new insights.

'ART FOR LIFE' TESTIMONIALS
Loved every minute of the classes! Brilliantly guided by Milly, I had so much fun and learnt some new skills along the way. Would highly recommend, very relaxed and informal and just a lovely way to spend a morning.
Vicky
It was a great way to have some time out and do something together, just the two of us. Neither of us are creative, but we were amazed how much we enjoyed ourselves and looked forward to the next session. Milly was fabulous and we found the sessions really relaxing and fun. It was like an effortless bonding experience, which was well needed.
Katie and Charlotte (Mother & Daughter)
Milly radiates positivity with a great sense of humour and makes paintings come alive.

ABOUT MILLY GREEN
I launched Art Movement in 1995 as an art consultancy and dining club, representing and exhibiting around 80 contemporary artists in the UK and around the world. I then ran my gallery for 5 years and now continue to represent my core 5 leading artists.
Following two years art therapy training, (Advanced Diploma in the Therapeutic and Educational Application of the Applied Arts, Certificate in Counselling Skills and Certificate in Parents & Children at IATE, The Institute for Arts in Therapy and Education), I have created, and personally deliver, Art for Life sessions using visual arts, as a language and to express emotion. The sessions are designed for you to relax, have fun and immerse yourself in creativity, aiming to promote happiness and wellbeing, particularly in helping Parents and Teenagers reconnect.
Painting, drawing, mixed media, words and movement are explored to open up curiosity and imagination.
I continually and consciously adapt Art Movement to suit the climate and believe that this type of exploration, Art for Life, seems more relevant now than ever.
