The Power of “I Hear You” with Drew Merit
Andrew (Drew) Merit is a lot of things! He is a therapist, executive director, improviser, illustrator, musican, coach and graphic facilitator. He is currently completing his MA and he is an intern therapist at the Community Institute for Psychotherapy in San Rafael and he is the executive director if Improv Marin, where he teaches and performs improv and has developed specialized programs that bring improv to seniors and to mental health and rehabilitation treatment centres. Drew coaches improv with a tools based, rather than a rules based approach, which Sarah finds SO COOL!! We have a great chat about how these two seemingly different worlds collide and also how sometimes they don’t. I loved this chat with Drew!!
