Welcome to Prism Healing Arts
NOTICE
2015
will be Prism Healing Arts LLC’s 7th and final year. We will be relocating to be closer to
family. Health and retirement
issues have prompted this change in our lives to achieve more support and
balance. During 2015 I will not be
accepting any new clients. All
clinical records will be maintained for 7 years beyond the last date of
service. During this time I will
maintain this web site, e-mail address (prismhealingarts@yahoo.com) and
the business phone (937-657-7721).
Working
with Prism clients, group members and staff has been a blessing in my life. Linda

Prism

mental health services. For the
past year (April 2011-March 2012) the following, with the exception of Private
practice, were provided to the public and/or organizations free of charge in

Workshops, Programs & Support
Groups
Life Tapestry, a series of workshops for persons
with cancer and their supporters, was once again offered through the
Springfield Regional Cancer Center with the gracious support of their staff
member, Ann Hembree, LSW. The series focuses on teaching
coping and relaxation skills, with expression of feelings through various art
forms.
Both working
with Grief and End of Overeating were our support group focuses this past
year. Practicing Peace with our Bodies is the new name of the EofO
group to reflect the focus of our new study book, The Religion of Thinness
(Michelle Lelwica, 2010). Due to time restraints and small
numbers, we have suspended the Grief Group for the coming year.
Drawing My Own
Conclusions was a 6
week summer series offered by Kelly Basinger who
authored a book with the same name (2011).
The series used artistic expressions to address such issues as family,
divorce, depression and joy. At the
end of the series each participant had constructed a book of their own.
Boost
Your Power was a health
and wellness workshop series offered by Gina Veno, RN, BSN. Workshops focused on
lifestyle choices to live to be 100, food choices to promote healing and
health, and striving for success through your beliefs. Several of these workshops are being
repeated this spring (2012).
One time
workshops were also well received.
Bliss featured Tracy Hunt, PC and new author Teresa Kander
on writing and healing. Other
workshops included: Hard of Hearing; Introduction to Reiki (offered twice due
to demand); Introduction to Reflexology; Painting Fabrics; In Stitches and
Sacred Cloth.
We continue
to offer a variety of training, presentations and consultations with churches,
service organizations, veteran’s groups, and colleges.
Private practice
Prism Healing
Arts, LLC was begun with the intent to offer high quality mental health
counseling. We have been able to
realize our goal to offer pro bono or reduced fee services to up to 40% of our
clients at a given time. This
includes our participation in Give An Hour for a third year, where we offer free mental
health counseling to active military, their dependents and families.
During our third
year the private practice rapidly expanded. Unfortunately this required us to
suspend the Grief Support Group, and we have not been able to offer as many
workshops and seminars as we would like.
We were also asked to offer counseling services through Prism at a local
college for a limited time.
Lisa Schauer, LSW, PC, continues with Prism Healing Arts, LLC
part time. Additionally, Barbara Friedly, RN, MRC is offering Reflexology at our
facility. Annette Newell, MRC, our
Reiki presenter, offered services at Prism last summer and unfortunately was
unable to continue due to health concerns.
Thank you for your support, we look
forward to the coming year! Linda

Bliss, a 6 week writing-healing workshop and support series was offered last summer. Our monthly book discussions continue to be vibrant and fun.
Both working with Grief and End of Overeating were our support group focuses this past year. The End of Overeating group grew out of reading the book by the same name in our book discussion group.
Our series on sewing and quilting workshops, In Stitches met monthly and featured a summer workshop by an area quilt artist on painting fabrics. We added a second monthly workshop Sacred Cloth to focus on making projects that were spiritual-based. We have use two books with Sacred Cloth, Quilting to soothe the soul (Carlson) and With sacred threads: Quilting and the spiritual life (Larsen & Davis).
Presentations, Training & Consultation

Private practice
Prism Healing Arts, LLC was begun with the intent to offer high quality mental health counseling. Through tier-based fees and pro-bono services we have been able to realize our goal and the practice is steadily growing. An increasing number of insurance companies are referring to Prism, even without our accepting any insurance (go figure…).
Our colleague, Lisa Schauer, LSW graduated from the University of Dayton, passed her exam to earn her Professional Counselor license, began a full time position and has continued with Prism Healing Arts part time.
Future
Beginning this summer we will offer a series of special programs and workshops, including Life Tapestry with the Springfield Regional Cancer; Drawing My Own Conclusions (Basinger, 2011) series; Bliss writing/healing; Painting Fabrics; Introduction to Reiki; and Art Therapy. We have begun negotiations with different groups and individuals and hope to soon offer more services and support groups based in our facility. Watch for details and thank you for your support during our second year!

Prism
Healing Arts, LLC 2009-2010
Prism Healing Arts, LLC is dedicated to offering quality community-based mental health services. In our first year the following, with the exception of Private Practice, were provided to the public and/or organizations free of charge in Greene, Clark and Montgomery Counties.
Workshops & Programs
Life Tapestry was developed and offered first in Springfield at the Regional Cancer Center, and then in Fairborn. Life Tapestry is a series of workshops for persons with cancer and their supporters. It focuses on teaching coping and relaxation skills, with expression of feelings through various art forms.
We have offered workshops around creating Pillowcases that Heal and Pillows that Remember, and donated many of our products to an area agency for abused and neglected children. The interested in these programs lead to the development of In Stitches, a series of quilting workshops.
Cite visits and open houses with area professionals, agencies, church members and clergy have enabled the message of Prism Healing Arts, LLC to be spread throughout the community.
Book Discussions
Our monthly book discussions have been lively and enlightening. They have resulted in the spin-off of a monthly support group (The End of Overeating) and a 6 session writing/healing support group (Bliss).
Presentations & Trainings
It has been exciting to offer training and presentations at churches, service organizations, veteran’s groups, colleges and through community health fairs. This has lead to an unexpected process of consultation with area clergy, professionals and community leaders.
Support Groups
Both working with families in grief and supporting families with deployed members were our support group focuses in our first year. The targeting of adolescents and working with families of those deployed were not successful.
Private practice
Prism Healing Arts, LLC was begun with the intent to offer high quality mental health counseling. Through tier-based fees and pro-bono services we have been able to realize our goal.
Future
We look forward to our second year in the community, offering mental health services, training and education to those in need. Thank you for your support during our first year!
