In this immersive program, we employ a dynamic combination of lectures, seminars, and workshops to bridge theory and practice, fostering a stimulating learning environment. Through role play, visual art practice, peer participation, and experiential group work, we aim to develop mindful, relational, and ethical art therapists. Key Features of the Course: Supervised Placement Learning: Engage in 96 days of supervised placement learning, gaining valuable hands-on experience in real-life art therapy settings. This practical exposure guides you to become a mindful and ethical art therapist, ready to make a positive impact. Active Learning and Creativity: Throughout the course, we encourage you to be an active learner and embrace creativity. Art making is at the core of our approach, providing numerous opportunities to develop robust practical skills. You'll also reflect on using your own art as a therapeutic practice. Personal Therapeutic Journey: Outside the academic realm, we emphasize the importance of exploring your own therapeutic journey. Engage in personal therapy to enhance self-awareness and understand the approaches that facilitate honest expression—a crucial aspect of becoming an effective art therapist. Flexible Pathways: Choose between a full-time (2 years) or part-time (4 years) pathway, with students on each path studying together. Both pathways offer a balanced mix of practice-based and campus-based learning.
