Louvenia Jackson, PhD, ATR-BC, LPC, LMFT, HLM
Professor Louvenia Jackson is an assistant professor at Loyola Marymount University in the Marital Family Therapy/ Art Therapy Department. Her work on cultural humility in art therapy has earned her May 2016 Outstanding Service Award in the Art Therapy Ph.D. Program from Notre Dame de Namur University and the AATA 2016 Pearlie Roberson Scholarship.
Racism, oppression, and discrimination are experiences which contribute to the racial trauma experienced by people of color. Workshop participants will use art making to depict their cultures of origin, share personal stories of racial experiences, and learn how gaining cultural humility is a necessary tool to address racial trauma.
