Welcome to our 15th episode of The Spirit of Creative Entanglement. We are three art psychotherapists, and this space is for curious minds seeking relatable, authentic, and meaningful stories about healing from all walks of life, both professional and personal. Join us as we explore creativity, connection, and the transformative power of storytelling and self-expression.
In this episode, we’re joined by Claire Manson, art psychotherapist and co -founder of Studio Upstairs, an arts and mental health charity supporting people to experience therapeutic change and growth through their creative and personal recovery journeys. Claire revisits memories of establishing Studio Upstairs in October 1988 in association with Diorama Arts, and how, driven by voluntary commitment, the Studio grew from opening just one day a week to operating five days a week within three years, becoming a unique working arts studio and therapeutic space still thriving today.
A discussion rich with professional and personal depth, insight, and learning moments, join us in this fascinating conversation where Claire shares her own very personal reflections of four decades of learning, practice, personal growth, and the power of saying yes to stepping into the unknown.
