Art therapy groupwork – the 7-in-1 course!
Description
This course recognises the benefits of combining:
- Art Therapy prompts/exercises
- Exercise (walking)
- Nature
- Social interaction
First the course establishes the benefits of exercise out of doors. Then this is incorporated into establishing a ‘Walking Art Therapy Group’ i.e. how to set one up. The group activities i.e. prompts, are given together with suggestions about the application.
This course also includes SIX separate stand-alone art therapy courses. These can easily be incorporated into the Walking Art Therapy Groupwork and so at the end of the course students will know:
- HOW to set up a Walking Art Therapy group
- WHY set up such a group
- WHAT activities to do as part of the group
- The various benefits to all from being part of the group
There is a heavy emphasis on practical application on this course. Numerous Art Therapy exercises are given and it is hoped that students will DO these exercises and report back to the Q/A.
Reference is also made to studies and the use of a variety of media. Again, ideally, students on the course will visit the links and then report back.
When you finish, you’ll feel you have been part of a Walking Art Therapy Group – and you’ll have plenty of material that will enable you to set up and run such groups!
Who this course is for:
- All interested in wellbeing and personal development
