Maryanne DiPasquale

Maryanne DiPasquale is a seasoned LCAT with fifteen years of experience working in hospitals and community mental health centers.  She earned her masters degree in Drama Therapy from New York University. She was the Director of Creative Arts Therapy for Lenox Hill Hosptial and Maimonides Medical Center during which time she worked as part of a multidisciplinary team to treat the full range of psychiatric diagnoses. It is her strong belief that the evolutionary purpose of creativity is to heal our psychological wounds and that engaging in the creative arts therapies can unlock our potential for self-actualization. As theater is a collaborative art form, Maryanne utilizes art, music, movement, poetry, and theater alongside the more traditional psychotherapy tools to optimize healing and growth.
