Blair Glaser, MA, LCAT, RDT conducts  Multi-Dimensional Psychotherapy  in New York, and by telecommunications across the U.S.. Her passion for consciousness has led her to in-depth study of various spiritual traditions, such as Siddha Yoga, Taoism, and Native American Shamanism.  At age 24 she began creating and facilitating retreats for the SYDA Foundation.

 

In addition to the more verbal modality of Multi-Dimensional Psychotherapy, Blair conducts a type of drama therapy she calls SpiritPlay. The healing power of theatre, which Blair pursued for 16 years, inspired her to receive her Master's in Drama Therapy from Vermont College and The Institutes for the Arts in Psychotherapy.  She is a New York licensed creative arts therapist, and has led drama therapy groups with women, children, actors, PTSD veterans, and was hired by actor-activist Jane Fonda to facilitate a group for teenage girls.

 

Blair teaches drama therapy and is a senior faculty member at The Institute for Developmental Transformations post-graduate training program in NYC. She is a yearly visiting professor for creative arts therapy graduate students at Pratt Institute, and has guest-lectured about drama therapy at New Rochelle College, The New School, and New York University. She is in private practice and also speaks at conferences and gatherings.

 

When it first blossomed in 1998, Blair worked for V-Day, an organization to stop violence against women, and from the fall of 2000 through 2004, she developed and facilitated The Vagina Monologues Workshop, a creative approach to sexual empowerment for women in New York City, Santa Fe, Los Angeles and at Omega retreat centers in New York and in Austin, TX.

 

In 1999, one of her drama therapy groups for actors was filmed by Europe's Envoyé Spécial,  the European version of Nightline .  In her previous career as an acting coach, Blair became the Internet's premiere actor-advice columnist, when the weekly column "Ask Blair" appeared on Playbill On-Line.
