July 01st, 2026

So, so much is new! First of all the book The Embodied Art Therapist is about to launch on July 20th. So my co-editors and I have been preparing by doing several book launch events.  On June 12th the NY Art Therapy Association hosted us for an initial virtual Q & A with the public which was very well attended.  

We are preparing for a second virtual event on July 10th, in just about a week, which will be hosted by the Lesley University Expressive Therapies Dept. and will feature authors who are affiliated with that community.
If you'd like to attend please register here: https://lesley.zoom.us/.../register/kpod8ihlQ3qfheciV9-C-w

You can visit our website to read more about the book and see the schedule of Fall 2026 book events including one live in NYC and another in Charlotte, NC.  https://www.theembodiedarttherapist.com/

Embodied Art Therapy Methods workshops have kept me busy this spring, April to June, both in the studio and online. These workshops teach practitioners an integration of top-down (brain-based) and bottom-up (body-based) art therapy methods. If you are interested in attending an in-person or online workshop in the Fall, contact me through this website.  Here are a few final photos: 

Somatic Coaching: Finally, I want to thank Brian Trzaskos and Ani Anderson of The Somatic Coaching Academy (www.somaticcoachingacademy.com) for two full days of enlightening training in Core Centering Somatic coaching. This very practical method combines neuroscience and physiology with ancient concepts from Tai Chi and Qigong to support clients' ability to manage stress and pain in their bodies.  

I am very excited to complete my certification and begin running workshops to lead practice in these methods and to start a new business online and in Rhode Island focused on Somatic Coaching, Somatic Touch Practice, and Reiki.  Look for a new website and Core Centering offerings very soon.
