Q: I was looking for a job! Now I have to pay to be trained? What gives? A: Our mission is to find the right type of artists, train and certify them as MnemeTherapists. Since you responded to the ad (or stumbled upon us) and you've made it this far, this might be worth your consideration. The Association membership fee, which includes certification is $3,000. Q: I'm interested, but unemployed and don't have any money. What can I do? A: Most of our students are in the same boat. Only you can decide if you want to invest in your future and make a difference in the lives of others. We encourage you to continue to look for work as you go through the program, but we accept payments, which we do "in-house", with no credit check or interest charges, (unless you don't make the minimum payment of $50.00 by the end of the month, then there's a charge of $15.00.) You can get started with just $50.00 deposit. We accept credit/debit cards and as mentioned, have several fund raising options. For those making payments, you will receive the password to the second part of the curriculum that teaches the process when your payments are complete. Here are the three ways that you can earn your Membership fee. Click on Cara's painting to keep going. You can get started with a deposit as low as $50.00 and then work your way through the curriculum:

Artist Reconnects to Her World This lovely lady was an artist, but she had lost the ability to communicate (receptive and expressive aphasia) or understand information she was receiving from her senses. (agnosia). Although she made eye contact and responded to physical cueing, at the beginning of the session, she seemed disconnected and would drop the brush and stare off into middle space. We were thrilled that we captured the moment when she began to move the paint brush independently. You can almost see the brain engage. By the end of the session, she was speaking in complete sentences, was proud of the painting she had done and had reconnected. |
