Autorenporträt
Georgia Huston is a student at St. Edward's University in Austin, Texas. She is a psychology major with a minor in art, and plans to become an Art Therapist and work with foster children. She has an internship counseling at-risk children and youths for the state of Texas, and she occasionally helps seniors and the mentally challenged with art projects. Georgia continues to work as a volunteer for Whole Child L.A., where she designed and manages a private social networking site for kids suffering chronic pain. As a young teenager, Georgia was stricken with severe pain from no apparent cause. When doctors failed to help, she spiraled into hopelessness. Her battle through this devastating period of confusion, frustration, and loss was life-changing. After recovering, Georgia created the Teen Pain Help Foundation (www.teenpainhelp.org) where as Executive Director she continues her outreach, spreading the word about children and young people who are suffering from chronic pain, offering them useful information and hope. Privately, she still counsels young people suffering with chronic pain when possible. Georgia continues to do public speaking, media interviews, and websites on the subject. And, she continues to write about pain.
