Episode 7: An Artful Pivot with Emma Zbiral-Teller

Emma received her BA from Hampshire College with a focus in experimental film and is a recent graduate from Adler University with a Masters Degree in Counseling and Art Therapy. Her in-depth experiences working with youth in public school systems has offered her insight into the strengths and needs of the communities she serves. She utilizes that knowledge to support youth, families and communities directly where they're at by using person-centered approaches that create encouraging, honest, trauma-informed and culturally-aware spaces. This approach fosters creative thinking, cognitive growth, mindfulness, social emotional learning and kinesthetic and sensory processing. She enjoys entomology, plant care, animals and dystopian sci-fi narratives.
