Description

The aim of this course is to explore the integration of art and therapy in theory and practice. Students will be introduced to the concepts, philosophies and methodologies of Art Therapy as an emerging discipline in its own right. The course will look at the use of art within the traditional frameworks of psychology. It will explore various forms of the visual arts as a medium for self expression, communication and growth. It is intended for the non-specialist interested in the psychological implications and effects of image making.

Note/s: Paddington Campus.
