INTRODUCTION TO THE PROFESSION OF ART THERAPY

Are you looking for a new career that involves creativity and personal growth? Whether you are starting to shape your professional path or want to change an established work career, this workshop will help you to find out if the profession of Art Therapy may suit your needs.

We will introduce the professional context of Art Therapy and its development. We will explain the basic concepts of Art Therapy and present case studies from our clinical work in psychiatry and with children. We will also give an overview of the various pathways available to train in Art Therapy and there will be a 'surgery' time at the end of the day to meet individually with one of the convenors to discuss your personal needs.

The workshops will include lectures, small group discussions and case presentations.
