Group Poetry Therapy Sessions

I am delighted that there has been such a positive reaction to my poetry therapy group sessions. I have now worked with Writers' groups in Wicklow Town and Arklow, a Gorey school group of 10-12 year olds (74 pupils), a Men's group in Arklow and a group in Gorey Library. I have also worked with many individuals in Dublin and Wicklow.

A big thank-you to all those groups and individuals who have had the courage to join me in my training.
