hello karen,
it's so good to see a blog on Lesley College. more than 10 years ago, i was a psych instructor who was longing to study expressive arts therapies, and lesley was my first choice to go. i treasured the lesley catalogues i got in the mail, the pictures of the campus, the faculty, the students, the classes. :)

but life brought me elsewhere. i landed in the m.a. counseling psych course here in our ateneo de manila, where i was most lucky to meet and learn from the philippines' foremost clinical psychologist, dr. ma. lourdes carandang. fortunately, she encouraged our creativity, and we all ended up learning to use play, art and expressive therapies in our work!

i would still love to see lesley one day. :)

best regards!

Creating a forum for discussion

For some time I've been discussing the possibility of creating a blog for expressive therapy on my website with one of our alum, Eve Lyons. Well, there's nothing like a pressing project (how will I motivate myself when my dissertation is done?!) to get you moving! My hope is that this can be a way to make expressive therapy even more of a living process for those of us who are interested in learning more about it. So, here we go!

100 days of dialogue!

So I've decided to do a small project of choosing something I'm researching, reading or writing about to share on this blog each day. I've been writing about expressive arts therapy.  My goal has been to articulate a critical perspective on expressive arts therapy, but as usual, writing is never easy, and I feel pretty alone in the writing process.  I like to write (sort of). I like to read (definitely!). And I know there is a connection between the two.   For me, research, theorizing, and critical reflection are not only for me.  Although I do enjoy the process of playing with ideas, writing (and by extension teaching and practice) for me is my work - my attempt to be part of a future building and change process that is done in community! I've been feeling a bit bereft of community, so here is my attempt to bu

Day 16 - Inspiration

Day 16 – One of the pleasures of being on sabbatical has been taking advantage of the opportunity to read, play, and go down the rabbit holes of research, which involves quite a bit of internet “stumbling upon.”   I’ve stumbled upon music, poetry, visual art, people’s stories, scholarly websites, articles, literature, and social action projects.   One of the things I tell students and believe, is that everything can be used as inspiration for sessions and connection. Here are just a few that have been particularly inspiring in the past few days – enjoy!   Amplifer – https://amplifier.org/about/   “a nonprofit design lab that builds art and media experiments to amplify the most important movements of our times. Our experiments are built on a foundation of free and open source art, the unlimited possibilities within a human centered design process, and the potentials when analog and digital technology merge.”   Blair Imani - https://blairimani.com/   In particular, check out h
