Sheena Irving

Sheena has been a professional actor for over 20 years, working in the UK, before emigrating to Aotearoa 10 years ago. Her experience as an artist gives her specific insight into the social and psychological stressors related to a vocation in the Arts Industry. Sheena’s personal journey with depression and anxiety inspired her to train as a Mental Health Practitioner, and she now combines her Arts and Counselling practice into a unique skill set, working as an Actor, Counsellor and “Wellness Tutor”, with a special interest in working collaboratively to promote Psychological Wellbeing within the Performing Arts.
