Cristal C.
PsyD in Clinical Psychology Student
Hear from Cristal C., a student in Meridian University’s PsyD in Clinical
Psychology program. She practices art therapy, and learning at Meridian has
been a great help in her field as it has encouraged her creativity, which she
sees come out on canvases and in paint.
Transformative learning for her has meant being able to sit in uncomfortable
situations, understand her feelings, and not run away from hard emotions.
Staying curious and learning about herself lets her bring what she studies into
her clinical therapy practice, carrying it into the community to help others.
She is optimistic about the opportunities ahead after her degree.
“There was a whole part of me that I sort of put to the side, and as part of the assignments we were really encouraged [to] use artistic expression and other mediums, and I went back into painting as well.”
