I'm very excited to report that I will be presenting at the International Expressive Arts Therapy Association (IEATA) conference in Berkeley, CA, held on March 14 - 17, 2013. This year, I will be presenting my work in exploring nine different orientations in free-form movement practices that correlate to the upper, middle and lower worlds from the shamanic paradigm. I have found this map to be so beneficial in my work with bridging the expressive therapies with ecopsychology, as well as personally beneficial in deepening my own dance practice. I'll let you know more about it in future posts. Please check out the details of the conference on this link - it is sure to be a wonderful event.

I also presented at the IEATA conference back in 2009 on my work using veils in movement in expressive arts therapy processes with teen girls and their mothers. It was entitled, "The Veil, the symbol of Islamic covering" and explored increasing multicultural awareness of the practice of veiling from a historical, social, political, and symbolic perspective. Please enjoy these two videos that I used in my presentation as an introduction to dispel some perpetuated stereotypes about veiling practices.
