Episode 17 | Emery Mikel | The Art of Business

Reina Lombardi • May 6, 2020

I know I always say, I am so excited to introduce you all to my next guest, but I really really am! She and I met because we were both on a panel together speaking about private practice back in 2015. We have continued to collaborate presenting at conferences on the topic and I have found her book "The Art of Business: A Guide for Creative Arts Therapists" to be a wonderful resource.

Please welcome Emery Mikel, MA, ATR-BC, LCAT, LCPAT to the show. She is the founder and director of Water & Stone, a Creative Arts Therapy, PLLC. W&S currently has 13 creative arts therapists seeing individual clients and running groups. Her practice also offers continuing education, both online and in-person. Emery is currently working on a second book, also related to private practice and starting a company. In addition to all of the above mentioned, Emery mentors and provides supervision to other therapists and interns, guest lectures at George Washington University and is adjunct faculty at Nazareth College.

I hope you enjoy our discussion about her book the Art of Business.
