FLOR FERRACO
What can I offer?
If you are looking for a confidential, supportive and safe space to explore your feelings, improve your wellbeing and develop a healthier lifestyle, then we can work together towards your goals.
Dramatherapy, as one of the Art Therapies, uses creativity, art, movement, play, music, stories and different drama techniques to indirectly explore and communicate feelings or personal experiences. It is about finding the tools you need to address, process, resolve, or make troubling issues more bearable. This can enable you to heal, express yourself and improve your wellbeing.
The way I plan each session varies accordingly to each client as my work is client centred and each case is individual. I offer an initial consultation for free so we can meet and discuss your goals then you can decide if this is the right place for you.
I organise workshops and interactive sessions for schools or other institutions. I write clinical reports when requested, if not we would always evaluate our progress during our time together. I also offer Introductory Workshops to Dramatherapy.
I am based in Sutton, Carshalton, South London, where I have my own studio but I am flexible and can arrange travel if requested.

Lately I've been interested on working with people who are suffering from diabetes. Some years ago I was diagnosed with tipe 1 diabetes so I am aware of the ups and downs of this disease. The impact and struggles that involve dealing with diabetes affect a person's physical, mental and social health. I can help you work through different strategies to manage a mindful approach to diabetes.

Another area I've been focused on is working with women. Empowering women, helping them overcome stress and cope with conflictive or traumatic issues. Including suffering during perinatal period or postpartum, have had premature babies or miscarriages. As well as those who are suffering from domestic violence or abuse.

I lead as well, workshops and sessions for vulnerable children either as groups or individual. My priority is to give children the opportunity to create and use their imagination within a safe and contained space.
