Join Expressive Arts Therapist, Tamalpa Supervisor and Creative Mentor Adriana Marchione for a special opportunity to explore ‘recovery’ from addiction in this Master Class. Using a life/art approach, we will draw and dance to embody avenues for change in ourselves, our loved ones, and the people we work with. Conversely, we will explore movements, postures, and beliefs that inhibit healing in relation to addictive behaviors.
This class will support you to:
– Reframe struggles and difficulties of recovery into artistic resources
– Envision and embrace healthy life choices through the creative process
