In Art as Alchemy, Gabriel Orion Marie (Veronica C. Wanchena), has written a brilliant synthesis that beautifully and profoundly takes the reader on a condensed version of her healing journey with her therapist, Dr. A. In this potent little book, she articulates with great insight how her wounding damaged her, and the specific aspects of the therapeutic relationship that were most necessary for her full recovery. Her artwork in this book speaks as eloquently, simply and openly as her words.
