The Importance of Art Therapy
Art therapy offers a unique approach to mental health treatment, allowing clients to express themselves in a non-verbal and non-threatening manner. This form of therapy is particularly beneficial for those who may find it difficult to communicate their feelings or experiences through traditional talk therapy. Art therapy has been used successfully to help individuals cope with a wide range of issues, including trauma, anxiety, depression, and relationship difficulties.
The Role of an Art Therapy Practitioner
As an art therapy practitioner, you will play a crucial role in facilitating clients’ self-expression and emotional healing.

Your expertise in art therapy principles and techniques will allow you to guide clients through the creative process, helping them gain insight and understanding into their personal challenges.

Hailey Cote
While the information was a fine general overview of all the different aspects of art therapy, the delivery was not engaging. The biggest disappointment was the use of the AI voice reading during the videos. It would often say the words wrong and be garbled. The accompanying mandala colouring book also has all the tell-tale blurry lines of being AI generated. Ironic for an art related course.
Paula
I learned more from this class than expected. Very informative. An excellent introduction for those interested in a career as an Art Therapist/Art Therapy but unsure as to what to expect. I do like how they include a video in the learning modules. The website is a little more confusing than it should be but i eventually figured it out! Now I’m trying to figure out how to print my certification:)
Valerie
Not only is the course thorough, but there are many add-on benefits as well, such as files and printable materials to help get you started once you complete the course. There is lifetime access and continued learning available as well, at no extra charge. It is a great program overall.

This took me over historical, to practical material. This made me feel ready to support my community and future clients. I liked the exams after each module, there are a few techinical and gramatical issues. However, it was not to the amount to reduce the value of the course in my opinion. I enjoyed taking this and would recommend the firends family and colleagues around the world.

As a professional cartoonist who has worked with many people of ages and backgrounds, it both made me realise the qualities I already possessed, and the qualities, skills and techniques I needed to move forward with being an art therapy practitioner. The course was very well laid out, and made into easily digestible modules. The multiple option quizzes were well thought about, and made you think.

Jodi
I started on this path 18+ years ago when there was no direct line to Art Therapy. However, after college classes, moving to another state, online classes & then life with kids taking over, I did this for me. Life has handed me lots of curveballs, but you are never too old to learn. This certificate is my birthday gift to myself. Now I can use my passions and love to encourage people. #LoveOutLoud
Sol Esmeralda
