About Me

I’m Lyndsay, and I love stories - reading them, writing them, drawing them and listening to them. I’ve made a whole life from story-telling and whilst I might have two separate ‘careers’ I see everything I do through an overlapping lens of story.

I qualified as an Integrative Arts Psychotherapist in 2011, have worked solidly ever since with a wide variety of clients, and have a private practice both online and in person in Cambridge, U.K. These days I specialise in supporting artists with the emotional side of art making, and run groups and work individually with people to help them better understand what gets in the way of their creative practice.

In 2017 I decided to fulfill a life-long dream and went to art school, studying for an MA in Children’s Book Illustration at Cambridge School of Art, where I graduated with Distinction. My first author/illustrated book ‘The Messenger’ - a wordless long form picture book about a dog in WW1 will be published by Bloomsbury in September 2026.
