Where creativity meets confidence and making art becomes medicine.
Lesley Andrew is an artist and art therapist based in Leeds, West Yorkshire, who has spent over a decade helping people use creativity to improve their mental health, build confidence and express what words alone cannot reach.
After 11 years as an art teacher and a pivotal decision to train as an art therapist in 2013, Lesley has developed a unique approach that blends artistic skill-building with therapeutic support — giving people both the tools to make art and the space to use it for genuine healing.
From free monthly creative hangouts to structured group programmes like Beyond the Fog — her six-week menopause and mental health programme — Lesley brings everything together inside one platform so her clients can show up, create and be supported without the friction of scattered tools and missing Zoom links. Her PACE framework — Pause, Act, Create, Empower — runs through everything she does, offering a grounded, practical path from feeling stuck to feeling free.
