"Elizabeth has shared her art therapy techniques, and the benefits of art therapy in the classrooms of the Community College of Baltimore County (CCBC) health classes. Some of the student's artwork has been hung in the campus administrative offices to demonstrate what can be done with a group. I have seen classes of individuals become a team and a unit because of her lecture and hands on demonstration. Eminently qualified, and infusing her work with a positive attitude and passion for her job, makes Elizabeth an excellent choice for any lecture or seminar."

Director of Extensions, CCBC
