In addition to my MSW and M.A. in Drama Therapy, I have extensive training in Psychodrama & Art Therapy. Creative Arts Therapy utilizes drama, art, dance, and music as expressive tools.

I use such techniques as role-play, clay work, drawing, and movement to facilitate change in some of my clients.
