Event

A lecture by art therapist and SVA alumnus Lauren Fabrizio (MPS 2009 Art Therapy), MPS, ATR-BC, LCAT, about how art therapy provides a voice for clients with eating disorders. Fabrizio demonstrates how eating disorder symptoms become a symbolic language to express underlying issues such as trauma, anxiety and depression. By providing a safe therapeutic space for expression through art therapy, these issues can be brought to awareness, processed and worked through, therefore giving clients a sense of control and empowerment in their recovery. Presented by MPS Art Therapy.
