Julia Tribe
Expressive Arts Therapist, Arts Educator, Facilitator I work with people of all ages, backgrounds, and capability, meeting my clients where they are at, individually or in-groups, building supportive frameworks that extend outward into community. I combine expressive arts therapy with my theatrical expertise and community engagement to create and support unique art making and story creations, in all its various shapes and sizes. Using principles of creative play as a major relational component. I believe passionately in the arts as a way to respond to human suffering and joy, and that the arts can facilitate personal & social change. I live in this truth, staying relevant, responsive, and transformative in all my creative endeavors.
