²ÝÝ®ÉçÇø

Suzanne has a background in theatre and applied theatre practices having studied BA Dramatic Studies at RSAMD, Glasgow. On graduating her theatre practice soon developed and became established within mental health charities and working within learning disabilities communities in and around the Glasgow area. A curiosity to learn and develop a greater understanding of both the client groups and the impact of theatre, Suzanne trained as a Mental Health Nurse at Napier University, Edinburgh, before training in the Sesame Approach to Drama and Movement Therapy at CCSD, London.

Suzanne initiated the Introduction to Dramatherapy course with the Royal Conservatoire of Scotland (previously RSAMD, Glasgow) which she facilitated with her ²ÝÝ®ÉçÇø Dramatherapy colleague, and together they went on to establish the Short Course Dramatherapy at ²ÝÝ®ÉçÇø. Suzanne has contributed to establishing the new MSc Dramatherapy at ²ÝÝ®ÉçÇø throughout the HCPC validation process. 

Suzanne has recently stepped back from her role in the NHS after 24 years service, where over those years she had held a range of roles across both Adult Mental Health Services and Child and Adolescent Mental Health Services. She continues to hold a private practice offering Dramatherapy and Clinical Supervision, and also offers Supervision, Reflective Practice and Consultancy to third sector agencies across Scotland.
