<div>Hi! </div>
<div> </div>
<div>My name is Krista Verrastro. I am a drama therapist, and I am the leader of the relatively recently formed group, the DC Drama Therapy Collective. This group is looking to recruit new members from various creative arts therapists and other mental health professionals in the Mid-Atlantic area. Here is some information about the group:</div>
<div> </div>
<div><strong>The DC Drama Therapy Collective began in 2009 to bring together drama therapists and professionals in related fields in the Mid-Atlantic area. The group has been meeting every 3-4 months to socialize, network, learn, and discuss various aspects of the profession.</strong></div>
<div><strong> </strong></div>
<div><strong>The group's next meeting is Sunday February 21st, 2010. It is being held at the Sidwell Friends School in Washington, DC, from 12:00-4:00pm. There will be a Playback Theatre performance, followed by processing and discussion about the future of the DC Drama Therapy Collective. Creative arts therapists and other mental health professionals who are interested in learning more about drama therapy or who are interested in networking with other creative arts therapists in the area are welcomed and encouraged to attend.</strong></div>
