A Conversation between East and West: Introducing Expressive Arts Therapy in China
study in Boston at what was then Lesley College in 1975 in the first cohort of students in their master's in expressive therapy training program.In 1980, after completing my training, I have been involved in the development of the creative and expressive arts therapies around the world.As a professor emerita from Lesley University, and as a pioneer in the development of these fields in Israel, South Africa, and the United States, I understand the significance of this moment and the burden and responsibility that you and the first cohort of students carry with you in determining how this work will develop in China.Vivien: Didi, can you please describe your background
