3 credit(s)


This course provides an overview of the long history and use of Arts in Healing practices including Art Therapy (painting & drawing, collage and other visual arts), Music Therapy (drum circle, singing, ukulele or guitar, songwriting, guided listening), Dance and movement therapy (creative dance, improvisational movement, partner dances).  The uses of creative writing and theatre as therapy, including poetry, story telling and skits will be explored.  

By learning and experiencing a variety of arts a student’s awareness of their own creative process develops.  As a result, students will be able to support self-expression and therapeutic creativity in others.  Arts-based therapy, in its many diverse forms, facilitates wholeness and healing of both individuals and of communities.
