Overview
Expressive Arts Therapy constantly seeking ways of knowing and responding to human suffering and passion. The premise of our work is that art and its modes of expression are a way to explore and support transformation through the imagination.
The Expressive Arts Therapy Certificate Program is the only integrative arts-based therapy training in BC. The training provides students with the unique skills necessary to practice as an Expressive Arts Therapist within a range of educational, clinical, and community settings.
The training consists of academic and studio-based learning, as well as supervised practice in the community. Students learn to integrate artistic modalities such as visual arts, theatre/drama, movement, and creative writing into therapeutic practice. Learning takes place in the context of small groups, which move through the program together to provide personal support and a professional network.
