In this episode of the Makers & Doers Podcast, I speak with Katie O'Donoghue, an artist and author of several beautiful children’s books. Katie is an art psychotherapist and is in the process of completing her PhD in Health Psychology in UCL. Katie speaks to me today about the power of introducing art and design to children, and how it can help them process emotions.
