Gearing up to Move Home & Start My Own Art Therapy Private Practice

The last few months have been busy with researching the data and information that will go into my business plan to start an art therapy practice back home in Northern California. I'm grateful for the wonderful opportunity to run an art studio here in Austin, but I miss home, and would like to start my private practice. It is time. I have thought about doing this for many years now. And now I am excited to have a funding opportunity to get one going. The dream has a chance to be made visible! When not busy at work at the Arc of the Arts Studio here in Austin, I'm busy at home reading and surfing the web to gather all the information I need to complete a business plan. But there is not much time. The offer is very time sensitive, and I'm scrambling to meet this short deadline to make this dream come true. I found an amazing program called Creativity Queen online while reading through the SCORE website. The founder's name is Laura Dessauer, and she also happens to be an Art Therapist. What she has created looks fantastic. And much of it looks like what I would like to be doing in CA. I'm hoping to connect with her in the next week to see if she can help me finalize my business plan in time. Tonight Alex and I are working on getting the website up and started with photos and text. Things are moving along quickly. I have high hopes.
