About the Authors

Andra Fischgrund Stanton, LICSW

Andra F. Stanton, an independent, licensed psychiatric social worker has been practicing individual and marital psychotherapy for twenty-five years, most recently at University of Massachusetts-Memorial Hospital. Over the years she has been especially sensitive to clients with chronic illness as she herself has been coping with scoliosis and back pain since the age of 11.

When she is not providing psychotherapy, Andra is an art lover and the author of a book about an indigenous weaving community in Oaxaca, Mexico, as well as several articles on Mexican crafts. Currently she writes from her home in Boulder, Colorado.
