4.) ONLINE ONE-TO-ONE SUPPORT

One-to-one creative therapy, supervision and Creative Consultancy. 

I am delighted to be entering my third year of regularly offering these services to artists, creatives, performers, directors, group leaders, therapists and facilitators. It's such a joy and a privilage to accompany people into the far corners of their hearts, minds and souls! I am looking forward to discovering how my new Somatic IFS and IFS Level 2 (IFIO)* skills compliment my toolkit. 

These sessions are booked on a term by term basis. My current one-to-one clients will get priority booking, then any spare slots will go live later on in the summer.  I'll let you know via the newsletter when there are slots available.

More info here. 

*IFS Level 2 (IFIO) is the IFS training I have just completed. IFIO stands for Intimacy From The Inside Out and is designed for couples therapy. I am interested in applying the IFIO theory in my group work, but also intrigued to find out how this particular relational model will impact my one-to-one work...

5.) COMMISSION YOUR OWN HOLLY STOPPIT WORKSHOP

I have a bunch of off-the-peg workshops, or you could commission me to design something bespoke for you and your peers / colleagues / friends. I love to travel and I love to offer my tools and techniques to groups of people who can make good use of them, long after my workshop has ended.

Who is this for: Theatre companies, health care organisations, businesses, community groups, creative collectives, individual artists.

When: Now booking for late 2025 / early 2026

Where: Available both in person and online 

How: Get in touch to explore options.
