Workshop Description
Expressive Arts Therapies is an evidence-based discipline of helping and healing that uses the arts as the basis for discovery and change. All five fields of the arts: visual, dance/movement, music, drama/theater, and writing/poetry, can offer health benefits for the mind, body, and spirit.
Dr. Mathew is an expressive arts educator, therapist, advocate, and intermodal artist. Her area of interest & specialization is the use of the expressive arts as a multi-sensory processing tool for self-expansion, problem, solving and personal growth. Attendees will be introduced to the 5 modalities of the expressive with strategies to implement within their scope of practice.
*PLEASE NOTE: Since this session involves active engagement with expressive exercises, attendees are requested to be on-camera for maximum benefit.
