Dramatherapist and Creative Wellness Facilitator
Hello! My name is Abigail Nelson, I'm a qualified dramatherapist based in Edinburgh, Scotland. I am registered with the Health and Care Professions Council (HCPC) and a member of the British Association of Dramatherapists (BADth). Dramatherapy is creative psychotherapy where we can utilise all of the arts in the therapy space to find a way of exploring and expressing your story and inner world in a way that is unique and authentic to you.
I provide one-to-one, in person dramatherapy at A Quiet Room by the Shore in Edinburgh. Get in touch to book a zero-obligation call where we can get to know each other and find out if dramatherapy is right for you. There are many reasons people decide to come for therapy, from getting to know themselves better to working through a particular issue or relationship. There is no right or wrong reason or time to get therapy, it is for everyone at all stages of life.
I have previously provided therapy in a variety of settings, including charities, community interest companies and within the NHS. I primarily work with adults, however I have also worked with teenagers. Experiences of those I've worked with include: anxiety, depression, autism (including late diagnosis), ADHD, bi-polar disorder, personality disorders, and trauma.
As a creative wellness facilitator, I run creative wellness and nature retreats, events and workshops. I also love to work outside, fostering deep connection to the self and other through our innate connection to nature.
