Art Therapy combines artistic education with psychological studies, equipping students to utilize creative methods for addressing therapeutic needs.
This program trains you to connect with individuals through artistic expression and guide them in meaningful creative processes. You'll discover various therapeutic art forms such as sketching, watercolors, pottery, photo arts, mixed media, and handmade paper techniques, while mastering their application in supporting mental and emotional health.
Although professional art therapy requires advanced degrees, undergraduate learners gain essential skills for organizing community art sessions and facilitating group creative exercises and discussions.
