Biography
I am a NYS licensed and registered art therapist, a certified yoga therapist (through iayt.org), yoga teacher, and author of 8 books. Because of my background (Professor Emerita and past director / founder of the graduate art therapy program at Nazareth College.), we can use free Apps- such as Paper53- available on the Internet); I can incorporate art therapy, real time (and in between sessions), as well as mindfulness meditation and yoga therapy / breathing exercises.As an expressive art and yoga therapist, I can offer both somatic-oriented work and expressive outlets other than traditional psychotherapy approaches.
