DR. TINA DONALDSON

My educational background was an epic journey.  It started with a Bachelor of Science degree in Microbiology and ended with a Doctorate in Clinical Psychology.  As a Clinical Psychologist and Educator, I draw upon the knowledge learned via my journey through the physical, social, and psychological worlds.  The mind and body are connected and when they are in alignment with each other, we as individuals thrive and grow.  When they are disconnected, there can be a stagnation in one’s growth, causing us to experience a sense of stuckness or suffering.  My approach to my craft is to help individuals on their own hero/heroines journey towards self-acceptance.  The journey requires them to find their own voice, which serves as an internal compass in reestablishing a relationship between the mind and body.

My expression of Cassandra is this ACT card deck.  The ACT card deck is a tool to help people live a more fulfilling life by having them recognize their own personal values and offers them a tool to live life through those virtues.  Cassandra, the heroine in our story, lives by her values and all are positively impacted by her way of being.  If we can bring awareness to our own values and live in accordance to them, we can create a fulfilling life for ourselves.
