Advice to the New Art Therapy Student

"Go for what you believe in. Search for your truth and honor yourself. For having chosen this path you bless the world with your belief and presence."
Brian Blocker, '05

"Engage in your own process. Create art and connect to the healing power. Take in everything, even if you feel something is not relevant to your career path or you are not interested in it, it will come up one day." 
Charlotte Crosland, '04

"Art therapy is a very special field of study and experience. My advice is to read the theory and to most importantly experience the power of the artwork for your-self. So I recommend working with an art therapist."
Sara Jordan, '04

"Do your art. Let yourself go."
Loretta Bifulco '05

"Let your own creative style come through, be open to different techniques and skills, and meet the client where they are at."
Amy Vidra '03

"Experience the healing nature of art for yourself so you can share it with others."
Theresa Thompson '04
