• Course CodeDP2MPCTF

• What will I learn?Person-Centred Art Therapy Skills was originated by Liesl Silverstone (BACP) Fellow. This course integrates Carl Rogers' person-centred approach with the therapeutic use of art images. The skills learned are then transferred to work settings. The programme covers the three main areas - theory, personal development and application - and is open to anyone who works with interpersonal skills e.g. in educational, community, medical or therapeutic settings. Art training is not required. Some background in counselling is beneficial.

• What qualifications do I need?You will need to demonstrate emotional maturity and be a qualified practising counsellor able to use person-centred art therapy skills as part of your paid or voluntary work. The Certificate in Counselling Skills is desirable.

• How will I be taught?The course is highly participatory and student centred. You will be involved in creating your own 'guided fantasy' visualisations and developing Person- Centred Art Therapy Skills.

• How will I be assessed?The diploma is based on on-going self, peer and tutor assessment.

• What could I do next?On successful completion of the course participants will gain a Diploma in Person-Centred Art Therapy Skills. The Diploma does not entitle participants to call themselves Art Therapists.
