Story Night at Cloud 9 Studios — Courtenay, BC Canada — Launch of my Practicum as an Expressive Arts Therapist (in training).

I’m brand new to this, and I’m not so brand new to this. I’m becoming an Expressive Arts Therapist and to be utterly transparent with you, adding the word therapist to my title is challenging for me. Performer. Yes. Storyteller. Uh huh. Facilitator. Indeed. Story Coach. For sure. Therapist… Whoooooosh…. I’m a work in progress.
