Support Art Therapy
 

As an RN, A health and wellness coach and a pottery teacher, I see the value in the healing power of art. It has the ability to reorient ourselves as in the Wounded Warrior Project, to help us connect to ourselves and others, as I have seen in children's pottery classes and to build confidence in self-esteem as we explore our creative abilities.

Thank you for making this healing modality a priority in a complex and challenging world.
