Ericha Scott, Ph.D. is Allen’s and Thom’s guest for this episode. Dr. Scott is a Fellow for the International Society of Study of Trauma & Dissociation, a board certified registered art therapist, a registered expressive arts therapy, internationally certified as an advance alcohol and drug counselor and licensed in three states as a psychotherapist. All that and she is a wonderful addition to the Start Right HERE conversation. Dr. Scott offers a fascinating description of Sand Tray Therapy plus many others varieties of expressive arts therapies, along with some very powerful case examples from her own practice. She is a proponent, as are Allen and Thom, of practitioners in the people-helping professions being responsible to do their own person work in order to be authentically present with clients. The hosts and Dr. Scott discover other practice philosophies and methodologies that they have in common. If you have even a passing interest in the use of creative arts in therapy, you will find many good leads in this episode.
Dr. Scott can be contacted via phone at (310) 880-9761. Her website and social media links are as follows:
