Knutsford Literary Salon

This is a private group by invitation only as it normally meets at a private home.  

Meetings are once a month on Thursdays from 7.30 to 9.00pm. We are currently meeting via  Zoom  until it is safe to meet in person again.  

If you are a member of this group, please find the programme here and use the PayPal button for payment.

If you would like help organising a private group with friends, contact me via the contact page. Thank you.

Group Bibliotherapy

Listening to each other mindfully, with curiosity and awe, each reader shares their own personal experience of one same story or poem, borne out of the encounter between the text and each individual context and unique personal narratives.

A range of perspectives converge to produce a rich tapestry of meaningful reflections. As we identify and deconstruct dominant and emergent ideas, it is entirely up to you whether you want to reaffirm, interrogate or contest them. You decide how deep you go and how much you say.

Group sessions are regularly announced via my newsletter and social media posts. Make sure you’re subscribed to be kept in the loop!

Tailor made sessions for organisations available upon request.

Individual Bibliotherapy

I will ask you to read a poem or a story or, if appropriate, we will read together in-session. This will enable a conversation that might otherwise feel difficult.

I hold a space where it is safe for you to speak. I listen with curiosity and awe, making no judgement. Together we explore your hopes are what you give value to.

I offer you support and guidance as you re-author your narrative so that it fits with what is important to you.

You are not the problem. The problem is the problem. And the solution is collaborative.

Session: 1 hour

Mentoring and Supervision

I offer guidance and expertise as well as practical and emotional support. I create a space for reflection while making sure that your practice is ethical and safe for both the people who consult you, and for yourself.
