The Nook The Nook for Therapeutic Creativity supports young people aged 7+ and young adults who need a calm, gentle space to create, learn, and grow.

We offer therapeutic art & creative writing sessions from Monday to Friday. Small groups & one-to-ones I'm Ali mum to four amazing young people, foster carer, teacher and therapeutic parenting coach. I started Flourish to support all those amazing parents, carers and adopters struggling to parent children and young people with childhood developmental trauma. On my own journey I soon realised there is a no one-size-fits-all to parenting or teaching and have spent the last few decades discovering my own parenting and teaching pathway. It's been an incredible journey, I have met some amazing people, read some mind-blowing books and qualified as a therapeutic coach and writing for well-being facilitator. Flourish is just me sharing with you some of the things I've learnt on my way and hoping to support you and your young people to flourish too! I do also offer workshops and 1-1 bespoke Finding Your Path programmes.

We’re very excited for this new group! It’s all about learning and building confidence through creativity. There’s a new theme each half term and, as always at The Nook, there’s no pressure but lots of opportunity to be curious, explore and be creative. We love how every student takes our themes and makes them their own! Our groups are intentionally very small and weekly to encourage friendships and build confidence all whilst finding the joy that creativity brings 😊😊
