Juliet King: Art Therapy and Neuroscience: A Revitalized Synthesis

Juliet King spoke at the DASER on Art + Brain on September 20, 2018. King is Associate Professor of Art Therapy, George Washington University, Washington, DC; Adjunct Associate Professor, Indiana University School of Medicine Department of Neurology, Indianapolis Current best practices for complex and challenging physical and mental disorders require a multi-disciplinary approach, yet there remains a void in bridging the gap between the most contemporary models. It is in this capacity that the seemingly distinct fields of art therapy and neuroscience may form the missing link.
