Four Naropa art therapy graduate students have been selected to present two presentations at the 2010 American Art Therapy Association (AATA) Conference in Sacramento, California.  Here are a couple of short blurbs about the presentations:

Laptops & Twitter & Blogs, Oh My!
Chelsea O'Neil & Donica Snyder

Can we responsibly integrate technology into the practice of art therapy without jeopardizing the therapeutic alliance? We think so.  An overview of both sides of the technology debate will be presented as well as examples of technology being used to build relationship in therapy and within a larger community context.

Art Therapy on the Home Front: 
Coping with Military Deployment of a Parent
Beth Fisher, Annice Johnson, & Chelsea O'Neil

The wars in Iraq and Afghanistan have brought about unprecedented cycles of deployment.  The increasing frequency of these cycles has resulted in raised stress levels for military families.  This presentation will identify the implications of military deployment on the psychological development and mental health of children within military families.
 
  
We'll see you in Sacramento!
