Chapter Delegate Nominee: Suzanne Deisher ATR-BC, LCAT, AMFT, APCC

Suzanne has a strong professional background, dedication to the art therapy community, and commitment to fostering meaningful communication between local and national organizations. She brings over a decade of clinical and professional experience as an art therapist, currently working at the Veterans Health Administration and participating on their national board of creative arts therapists. Her leadership experience also includes five years as a volunteer and board member with the New Jersey Art Therapy Association and is now working to strengthen connections among California art therapists following the dissolution of the NorCATA board. These experiences equip her with the insight, professionalism, and drive needed to effectively represent SoCalATA as Chapter Delegate.

With strong communication and collaboration skills, Suzanne is well-prepared to provide monthly updates on SoCalATA activities during Assembly of Chapters meetings and to relay important national AATA news back to our chapter. Her organizational skills and reliability will help ensure smooth and consistent communication between SoCalATA and AATA and when attending the annual AATA conference, Suzanne will proudly and capably represent our chapter.

For these reasons, Suzanne is confident in her ability to serve as an effective and dedicated SoCalATA Delegate to the Assembly of Chapters.
