Art therapy training: practicing a form of therapy with artistic means

Art therapy is a form of therapy using artistic means and is always active. Through artistic activities, clients put themselves in the picture and can thus gain new experiences. This supports them in coping with crises, illnesses or major changes. This form of therapy thus makes an important contribution to health care by activating resources and self-healing powers. The therapy is usually prescribed by a doctor and is holistic.

Art therapy training can be completed as a certificate course. Art therapy training covers topics such as

  • Art therapy and your own artistic language
  • Content, form and context of your own art
  • Artistic basics
  • Forms of art practice
  • Design pedagogy
  • Painting and movement therapy
  • contemporary and experimental drawing
  • Integral design with clay and expressive painting
  • Integral mask work
  • Designing with clay
  • Mediation
  • Feather flight
  • Dealing with clinical pictures
  • Professional support, bilateral talks and discussions in the group (group supervision)
  • Communicate easily with children through play
  • Flexible advice
  • Art therapy in the field of curative and special education
  • Training for presentation skills and rhetoric
  • Intuition training
  • Mandala process
