Pamela Malkoff Hayes will share many innovative art exercises that will help to put a stop to the catastrophizing thoughts and negative self talk. The art exercises taught in this course will help you problem solve, change your perspective, and move towards a place of acceptance and gratitude.

Art exercises, demonstrations and interactive discussions will be utilized in this innovative course.
