Danielle Dickson, BFA. RYT. RTC. EXAT is an expressive arts therapist, therapeutic counsellor and yoga/mindfulness teacher whose practice focuses on supporting folks towards exploring authentic expression while providing a supportive environment for growth and expansion. She is passionate and committed to supporting people to connect more deeply with their innate healing intelligence and capacity for self-compassion and connection.
