Since I am an emerging artist, I do not have the background and training that most professional artists do. I do however, have education and experience that I believe have helped me get to this place in time. I am both a licensed Psychologist and Clinical Social Worker. I have attended a number of workshops encompassing both spirituality and art. These have included workshops in the following areas:
As a Psychologist, I have conducted a number of experienctial workshops for adult and adolescent survivors of child abuse, persons with anxiety and panic disorders and eating disorders. I have also conducted topical workshops related to time management, stress reduction, assertiveness training, and others. I have frequently used the expressive arts as a tool to help patients.
