Hello and welcome to Art Thou Well. This site is about the roles of culture and the arts in health from a psychological perspective. It contains posts on research, practice, policy and resources.
My name is Katherine Taylor and I’m a UK based clinical psychologist with a research background. I lead the GM i-THRIVE Arts, Culture and Mental Health Programme across the ten boroughs of Greater Manchester, and work in NHS clinical practice (CAMHS: Child & Adolescent Mental Health and Clinical Psychology Services, Lancaster & Morecambe).
I began this blog to document my 2017 Fellowship, in Finland and the US. In my research I’ve explored links between arts, health and well-being.
