At Wild Glen Creative Healing, I am committed to creating a welcoming, gentle, and inclusive environment where people can engage in creativity, rest, and connection. Accessibility is an ongoing practice, and I aim to be transparent about what I can offer, what limitations currently exist, and how I can adapt sessions to meet individual needs wherever possible.
1. Physical Accessibility
Studio Access
My home studio in Dunoon is located on uneven ground and is accessed via stairs. Unfortunately, this means the space is not currently wheelchair accessible and may be challenging for people with limited mobility or balance concerns.
I am committed to offering alternatives, including:
- Outdoor sessions (weather permitting)
- Home visits where appropriate
- Online sessions for creative wellbeing or one‑to‑one art support
- Alternative accessible venues for group workshops when possible
If you have specific access needs, please contact me in advance so we can explore the best option together.
2. Sensory & Environmental Considerations
I aim to create a calm, low‑stimulus environment. This includes:
- Soft lighting
- Gentle background sound or silence
- No strong fragrances used in the space
- Flexible pacing to support sensory needs
If you have sensory sensitivities, please let me know — I can adjust lighting, sound, materials, or the structure of the session.
3. Neurodiversity‑Inclusive Practice
Wild Glen Creative Healing is a neurodiversity‑affirming space.
I welcome:
- Stimming
- Movement breaks
- Quiet time
- Alternative communication styles
- Clear structure or extra processing time
I can adapt sessions to suit your preferred learning style, communication needs, or energy levels.
4. Mental Health & Trauma‑Informed Approach
My work is grounded in gentle, trauma‑informed principles:
- You choose your pace
- You can pause or stop at any time
- You are not required to share personal information
- Consent is ongoing and can be withdrawn at any point
- I avoid triggering language and high‑pressure environments
If you have specific needs around emotional safety, please feel free to share them — only if you wish.
5. Financial Accessibility
I aim to keep offerings as accessible as possible by providing:
- Clear pricing
- Payment options including cash, bank transfer, and online methods
- Occasional sliding‑scale or community‑supported places
- Low‑cost or free community sessions when funding allows
If cost is a barrier, please reach out — I will always try to find a supportive solution.
6. Accessibility for Online Sessions
Online sessions are available for:
- Creative wellbeing
- One‑to‑one art support
- Portfolio guidance
- Gentle check‑ins
I use simple, accessible platforms and can provide:
- Step‑by‑step joining instructions
- Camera‑off options
- Flexible pacing
- Breaks whenever needed
7. Service Animals
Registered assistance dogs are welcome at outdoor sessions and at alternative accessible venues. Due to the nature of my home studio (cats present, limited space), assistance dogs may not be suitable indoors — but I will always work with you to find an alternative accessible option.
8. Feedback & Continuous Improvement
Accessibility is an evolving practice. I welcome feedback, suggestions, and conversations about how I can make Wild Glen Creative Healing more inclusive.

I will always do my best to accommodate you with care, respect, and openness.
