心理这点事儿
英文播客
This is the very first episode of our “EAT Masters” series, and I feel really honored to invite leading voices in Expressive Arts Therapy to join us on Little Art Heart Pills, responding directly to your questions.
Today, we are joined by Dr. Keren Shechter from Lesley University—the academic home of Expressive Arts Therapy. With over 25 years of clinical practice and teaching experience, she’s here to explore a question many of us carry:
Why does it become harder to feel genuine happiness as we grow older? Where did all that joy we had as children go?
In this episode, you might just find a key to reconnect with that sense of joy… and a way to reawaken the vitality within. Don’t miss it.
Dr. Keren Shechter, is an experienced registered expressive arts therapist, specializing in psychodrama, with over 25 years of clinical and professional experience. She has worked extensively with children, adolescents, and adults across various settings, including schools, community clinics, and mental health services. She currently teaches in the Expressive Arts Therapy master program at Lesley University in the United States, and also teaches as William James College and Cambridge College, where she supports the training of future expressive arts therapists. Her work integrates art, body, and relationship, using creative process to help people deepen self-understanding and connect with others.

Starting today, we’re launching a two-month special series: 「Expressive Arts Therapy — Conversations with Masters」
As a graduate of the first cohort of the China–U.S. Expressive Arts Therapy training program, I feel deeply honored to invite six leading figures in the field—senior practitioners, professors, and educators actively engaged in both clinical work and teaching—to join this series and share their insights.
They all graduated from Lesley University and bring decades of experience. They are not only experts, but also pioneers—people who have witnessed and shaped the field from its early beginnings to where it is today.
To make listening easier, this series will be released in two versions: a Chinese voiceover version and the original English audio. You can choose whichever feels right for you.
