The Artist Within: Nurturing a Personal Creative Practice for Therapists - 2 CEs

The Artist Within: Nurturing a Personal Creative Practice for Therapists will reconnect you to your artist self to build resilience and enhance professional effectiveness in your practice. Join us for an engaging and interactive workshop where you’ll learn how to unleash your creativity, reduce stress, and enhance your therapeutic skills. Don’t miss out on this opportunity to nurture your artistic side while connecting with fellow therapists.

This 2 CE online event is offered by the LCAT Advocacy Coalition as a fundraiser for ongoing legislative advocacy in New York State to increase access to the creative arts therapists and to protect the rights of current clients who depend on insurance to access these therapies.

Learning Objectives:

• Identify at least three ways a personal creative practice enhances professional effectiveness, ethics, and well-being.
• Engage in a guided creative exercise to explore personal artistic expression.
• Develop a personalized action plan for sustaining a regular creative practice alongside professional responsibilities
