Vicki is a professional counsellor and art therapist who works with adults and children to assist them with stress management, anxiety, goal setting and mindfulness. She believes that the creative arts provide an alternative way for people to communicate and that they play an important role in helping people access their inner resources and maintain personal wellbeing. As a school teacher, Vicki noticed that there was a strong need to provide counselling services for children that were not solely based on “talk therapy”. This prompted her to move out of the classroom and establish “The Cr3ative Space,” as a way of assisting children and parents with various areas of concern. Vicki is a professional counsellor with qualifications in both education and art therapy. She has worked as a primary teacher for 20 years and holds current registration with the Queensland College of Teachers.
