I've attended several expressive art workshops hosted by Anita Carter. Throughout each session, she is professional and introduces a clear focus to participants, and at the same time, is inviting and welcoming. Her gentle nature and "there's no right or wrong way to express yourself" philosophy allow participants to ease into the session at their own pace without judgement. For myself personally, her techniques have fostered self-development and healing. Her extensive background in therapy and qualifications also demonstrate her competence in the field. I highly recommend her workshops! M. Carabeo, UK
I truly enjoyed attending Anita’s creative self-care workshop January. I really learned how to delve into having an emotional response to artwork. She was so professional and led the group seamlessly and allowed me to think about how to incorporate art and journaling into my daily life. I can't recommend her enough, it was so much fun and really was a new and exciting experience for me! M. King, UK
Anita Carter, guided me through some of the darkest days of my life. Anita provided an environment of understanding, trust, kindness and acceptance which enable me to get in touch with my feelings through the arts.” A. Arnell, USA
At the sessions and workshop I have attended with Anita, she has always created a calm, safe environment to allow exploration and expression of feelings and emotion through art. Any uncertainties or nerves of participants are soothed by her warm welcome and her kindness. Her approach offered me a new way of looking at things and opened up forgotten channels of creativity, although no artistic ability is required to participate, and the experience is completely non-judgemental. I cannot recommend her highly enough. Elizabeth V. UK
I had the chance to work with Anita and each time that I did, the day started great. As a manager in a very demanding job, expressive arts helped me relieve stress and allowed me to clear my mind. It allowed me to get in touch with my artistic side…a side that I don’t get to see very often. It made me a better person on that day! I would encourage anyone who likes art, even is the slightest, to engage in her expressive arts groups. And for those who don’t like art, do it anyway, you’ll be happy you did! S.

I worked closely with Ms. Carter as the co-Director of the Mental Health Outpatient Program. She was a great asset to our team, providing therapy through artwork, allowing the Marines to address underlying trauma through a neutral medium and connect their emotions with physical manifestations. This was a service that could not have been performed without Ms. Carter’s expertise and compassionate demeanor. I highly recommend Anita Carter for future assignments within the therapeutic arts. R.
