We Are FSU

This post is not about art therapy or issues related to art therapy as I usually post, but instead about the shooting that occurred at my undergraduate institution on November 20.  Though I was in Pennsylvania at the time, Tallahassee and The Florida State University (FSU) are so close to my heart that I felt the sorrow and pain so much.  You hear about shootings on the news and you feel bad, but then it happens at a place you will always consider "home" even if you have another home.....and it really hits home.  I'd like to take a moment share a very well written blog post by Dave Gussak, an art therapist and professor at FSU.  Enjoy.
