The stipend is a way to honor those who are working toward that goal.<\/p>\n<p>DeAris Neal is excited about getting the chance to thank Busch in person for being a role model\u2014and for the scholarship aid, too.<\/p>\n<p>Neal, a member of the UTC Counselor Education Program, is on pace to receive his master\u2019s in mental health counseling in December. In addition to his college course load, he is interning with Georgia HOPE (Helping Outstanding Pupils Educationally), a community-based nonprofit providing mental health and family preservation services.<\/p>\n<p>Neal has bills to pay, minimal income coming in and very little free time in his schedule. So it was a great relief when he found out in late February that he would be the recipient of the Cam Busch Art Therapy Annual Scholarship.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cLearning that news was wonderful,\u201d said Neal, who received his bachelor\u2019s degree in psychology from UTC in 2016. \u201cI\u2019ve taken out a lot of student loans. Being an intern\u2014and that internship is for free\u2014and going to school while working part-time and interning part-time can take a financial toll on you. This will help me focus on my studies and the internship.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Neal said his life goal is to obtain a counselor position in the mental health field, working with children and adolescents. At Georgia HOPE, he has been counseling students at Saddle Ridge Elementary and Middle School in Rock Spring, Georgia. The students he advises range from a first-grader to several eighth-graders.<\/p>\n<p>Many adults don\u2019t want to open up to a counselor, Neal said, so imagine trying to get a young child to express emotional experiences. He has integrated the concept of art therapy into helping his young students.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIf they\u2019re not taught to talk about things emotionally, they\u2019ll just hold it in. And that builds a lot of internal mental stress. Counseling is therapeutic talking one-on-one, but I\u2019ve decided to add in that twist of art therapy,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI mainly focus on CBT\u2014cognitive behavioral therapy. I\u2019m trying to get them to understand themselves mentally so they can see how things can affect behavior. Since I\u2019m dealing with kids, just talking face-to-face can get very boring for them, so I\u2019m adding in some type of drawing aspect. They seem to like that and enjoy it.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The goal is to get these young children out of their shells.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s an excellent bonding activity,\u201d Neal said. \u201cWhen they focus on something on paper, they\u2019re subconsciously talking, so they\u2019re distracted in a way. But it\u2019s stress-relieving at the same time.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt helps them a lot. They don\u2019t see it as being serious when they\u2019re drawing and talking about their feelings. They\u2019re kind of hanging out in a sense. And it helps them want to come to counseling, too, because \u2018I get to go draw.\u2019 They don\u2019t look at it as going to talk about emotional or traumatic things.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Without divulging any confidentiality, Neal cites one girl who made an emotional breakthrough via art.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis one girl I have doesn\u2019t like to talk much or answer a lot of questions, but when I pull out paper and a pencil and ask her to draw, she\u2019ll draw a lot of traumatic experiences from her past,\u201d he related. \u201cShe won\u2019t talk about it, but she\u2019s telling me her story as she draws it.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou have to be creative in reaching some kids. Art is a way of expressing themselves. And that\u2019s what I tell them. I let them know it\u2019s self-expression, and there are no rules to it; it\u2019s their drawing.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Neal admitted he doesn\u2019t know much about Busch, a pioneer in the art therapy field who received both her bachelor\u2019s and master\u2019s degrees from UTC. In 1990, she became the first practicing art therapist to be hired in Chattanooga.<\/p>\n<p>He relishes the opportunity to sit down with her and learn from her.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI would love to learn about all of her art therapy experiences,\u201d Neal said. \u201cI want to hear her stories of how she related to other people and how that bettered other people\u2019s lives. I can take that aspect and apply it to my counseling.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A few years ago, Carole Ann McGovern \u201cCam\u201d Busch created a scholarship at the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga to recognize and encourage students who are pursuing a career in the field of art therapy.<\/p>\n<p class=\"more-link-wrap\"><span><a class=\"more-link button text\" href=\"https:\/\/blogarchive.utc.edu\/news\/2020\/03\/when-hurting-kids-wont-talk-their-drawings-can-reveal-whats-going-on\/\"><span>Continue Reading <\/a><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1493,"featured_media":30661,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_genesis_hide_title":false,"_genesis_hide_breadcrumbs":false,"_genesis_hide_singular_image":false,"_genesis_hide_footer_widgets":false,"_genesis_custom_body_class":"","_genesis_custom_post_class":"","_genesis_layout":"","_ef_editorial_meta_date_first-draft-date":"","_ef_editorial_meta_paragraph_assignment":"","_ef_editorial_meta_checkbox_needs-photo":"","_ef_editorial_meta_number_word-count":"","_ef_editorial_meta_checkbox_slider":"","_ef_editorial_meta_checkbox_featurette":"","_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[14,123864,3,8244,64,286],"tags":[95929],"class_list":{"0":"post-30659","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-advancement-and-alumni","8":"category-art","9":"category-community","10":"category-honors-and-awards","11":"category-news","12":"category-psychology","13":"tag-dearis-neal","14":"entry"},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.6 -
