I studied Expressive Arts with Natalie in 2004-05 through a graduate certification program offered by Saybrook University.  Dr. Rogers’ feels, “Tom Zuba is authentic, creative, and effective in using his sensitivity as a person-centered expressive arts counselor letting people grieve in their unique way allowing compassion and love to return.  I am delighted to have his essay in my forthcoming book.”

 

About her book, Dr. Rogers’ says, “Merging the expressive arts – movement, visual art, sound, and journal writing with the philosophy of Carl Rogers’ person-centered approach, opens a gateway for many types of groups to embrace non-verbal methods along with dialogue. Natalie brings life to her unique approach using case material, “explorations”, personal experience and insights from years of facilitating workshops and trainings around the world. Proof of the effectiveness of this approach is the last chapter, “In Their Own Voice” in which former participants, now colleagues, describe their work with a wide variety of groups. . Dr. Rogers’ emphasis: as we awaken our consciousness through the expressive arts we find our strength and our voice to bring about constructive social change. Finding inner peace moves us toward a peaceful world.”
