1.2 Expanding the Art Therapist's Toolbox with Dr. Erin Partridge
01/08/20 • 58 min
Dr. Erin Partridge speaks with Lindsay and Janet about what she has learned from her clients about artmaking, and how her personal art process informs her work as an art therapist. She also speaks to the power of technology to enhance the art therapy process by making art more accessible to different populations and make it possible for clients to "step into" the art through tools like virtual reality and exciting apps that she is introducing into her work. Dr. Partridge has a PhD in art therapy and is a board certified, registered art therapist. She has a range of clinical experience, including in community, pediatric, forensic, and geriatric settings. She has an art therapy studio as well, where she offers workshops and classes in the company of her pet parrots.
