Untangling the Invisible Intersections of an Art Therapy Doctoral Candidate's Mixed Identities
Chen, Danielle Tidwell; Gussak, David E.
Art Therapy: Journal of the American Art Therapy Association, v40 n2 p101-105 2023
To examine the complex layers of those who are multi-racial/ethnic/cultured, the mixed-identity of the first author -- an art therapy doctoral student -- is first deconstructed, followed by the delineation of systemic and historical contexts. This viewpoint further examines how the therapists' multiple identity[ies] informs and intersects with those they work with. This includes not only clients, but also those with whom they find themselves in a potentially hierarchical relationship such as within the coauthors' teacher/student dynamic. Recognizing how these examinations may inform a dissertation agenda, this viewpoint identifies gaps that need to be bridged to inform cultural and mixed-identity humility and awareness, and untangle these invisible intersections.
