About The Business
I am a Californian, raised in La Jolla and with family in Santa Cruz presently. I run an Art Therapy and Theater Research Institute from the European country of Luxembourg and am looking for networking and partnering in California.
I instruct future psychiatrists in using the humanistic approach to integrated Art Therapies (and especially Drama Theapy) with patients, run an international short summer acting and staging workshop using (my) Empathy Training techniques, teach future Art Therapists narrative dramatization and Drama Therapy, and of course run a practice (specializations: ADHD patients and children).
Advice
- Do not give up your business venture within the first year due to lack of clients. In the country of Luxembourg, for example, the people are very conservative. It takes 3 years to establish a clientele.
- Make sure to give extra services to your first clients, as the method that works best for keeping a small business going is word-of-mouth. Offer to talk about your product or company at Fairs, Womens' groups, church groups,etc. Just keep asserting yourself, and do not give up easily.
