About Me

My name is Christina Johnston and I am a HCPC registered Art Psychotherapist and full member of The British Association of Art Therapists (BAAT). I completed my MSc Art Psychotherapy degree in 2021 and my BA (Hons) Fine Art degree in 2019. 

I set up Christina Art Therapy as a response to the growing art therapy needs within Northern Ireland. Through Christina Art Therapy I have worked with primary, secondary and special schools, community centres, businesses, charities and for the Trust. 

Although I often get one-off workshops and time-limited art therapy work, I have consistent sessional work within different organisations such as;

​

South Eastern and Southern Trust (September 2024 - Present)

Sally Gardens Community Centre (June 2022 - Present)

Resurgam Healthy Living (June 2022 - Present) 

The Education Authority NI (January 2022 - Present)

PIPS Hope and Support (June 2021 - May 2022)

Links Counselling (May 2021 - October 2025)

uHub Therapy Centre (February 2020 - August 2022)

​

​

I have worked with clients between the ages of 5 to 70 through individual, group art therapy, art workshops and classes.
