Colette Alexandratos
Colette embarked on the MA Art Therapy programme as an international student. With a Bachelor (with Honours) in Animation Production, Colette entered the programme as a freelance illustrator having prior experience in the performing arts and book publishing industry in the UK.
During her time in the MA Art Therapy programme, Colette began her training in art psychotherapy. She gained invaluable clinical art therapy experience at a healthcare institution for seniors, and at an international school. Additionally, Colette volunteered as an art therapy facilitator at a national healthcare institution, community mental health services and a private psychotherapy practice.
Colette finds solace in her own art-making which continues to support her journey of self-discovery and awareness into her psychological well-being.
