Please join us in celebrating our interns who are graduating this month!
Congrats to our clinical intern Amanda Lyon (she/her) who graduated with her master’s degree! Amanda is a wonderful addition to our field, and we were so lucky to have her a part of our Flourish Family! Thank you for your compassionate work. We are so excited for you to bring art therapy to Flourish in the future!
Amanda is knowledgable helping clients in the following areas:
•Late-diagnosed neurodivergence (ADHD & autism discovered as adults)
•Complex trauma (examples include: religious, sexual, childhood traumas, plus various lifelong stressors, and how the connections can impact us deeply)
•Chronic and serious illness (living with, caregiving, experiences with medical trauma)
•Grief and loss (death, non-death, dramatic life transitions)
•Couples and families (relational dynamics, communication, transitions)
Adolescents (identity development, emotional regulation)
•Older adults (life transitions, meaning-making, late-in-life diagnoses)
•Social justice and identity development
•Expressive arts therapy (art, music, movement, writing)
•Somatic approaches (mind–body practices, grounding, breath work, yoga)
•ACT, CBT, and DBT (skills-based therapies examining thoughts, emotions, and using radical acceptance and commitment to change)
Please reach out if you’re interested in being an intern with us! We offer flexible hours, ability to work from home, and the best part is the opportunity to work with the LGBTQIA2S+ community.
