Statement of Purpose
I am currently a second year graduate student pursuing a Master's degree in Counseling and Art therapy...a mere pup in the field- but I have already learned so much! I keep thinking, "I really need a place to record this stuff," and thus, a blog is born. My intention is to create some kind of catalog for ideas, interventions, and AHA moments. My secondary motivation is to hold myself accountable for continuing to learn, explore, and grow personally and professionally.

I think that's a great idea! Your art directives are very insightful! I might have to start the same thing as I'm in my 1st semester of grad school for MFT/Art therapy!
