I am an Artist, Teacher, Reiki Master, Certified in Expressive Therapy, and Playback Theatre; and combine these with my love for traveling. Over the last five years , I have acted as a Lead adviser to the Bangladesh Therapeutic Theatre Institute and supervised students in Playback Theatre and Expressive Arts Therapies. Ive raised 3 sons, by the lake in the mountains of Vermont. My explorations around the world, coupled with my own life experience have deepened my sense of both Connection and the Mystery of this world. My experiences has enriched and profoundly changed the way in which I perceive the world.
Hello Jennie Kristel,
I just found your blog. In 2010 I was in Chennai for 5 months, I stayed in a home for 40 girls who could not stay home, or did run away etc. After these experiences I started to join the study art therapy. Now I’m in my second year.
Art therapy would be great for the girls I met. I hope art therapy will grow in India.
Greetings,
