My name is Anne Marie Tymlin and I am a Dramatherapist and a Bereavement Specialist.

What I Do

Bereavement Support

As a therapist I offer a chance for adults and children to process the difficulties they may face during times of change, loss, and bereavement. Talking to a professional therapist can be a valuable decision as we are specialists in our field.

Creative Arts Therapy

I have developed and delivered CPD programmes to teachers on subjects that are practical and supportive for their position. My programmes include personal development for teachers, bereavement information and self-care for carers.

Online Therapy

I provide online individual and group therapy for adults who are looking for support at times of stress. This support is confidential and non-judgmental. I include creative activities and mindfulness for personal development and relaxation.
