What is my involvement with PuzzleArt Therapy™? PuzzleArtist Alli Berman and I collaborated on and created an exciting new way of doing therapy. She created her PuzzleArt™ concept decades ago. I observed a creativity and brain fitness program she was presenting to help kids improve memory and think outside the box. She was using her wonderfully creative and educationally based PuzzleArt™ concepts. I saw the parallels and there was no turning back. We developed the System and launched it after two years of testing in the field. The PuzzleArt Therapy™ System…the colorful and fun approach… was born! We are grateful and thrilled that therapists in 16 countries and optometry schools in the US use our System.
