What this course is NOT

  • This is NOT an Art Tutorial.

  • I am not offering explanations of art techniques for you to become an artist. It is an inspiring course that offers Art Therapy exercises and insights into Art as Therapy to guide you during your creative process .

  • Furthermore The course aims to inspire you to improve your self care and work on your personal development.

  • Following the course is NOT the same as being in an Art therapy session. This course is by no means trying to replace your contact with a therapist in "real" life. If you have the chance to participate in offline art therapy, this should always be your priority.

The Complete Art Therapy Course for Self Healing course Personal Development and Self Healing through Art (Beginner) shows you how to use art as expressive tool at home. It also introduces Art Therapy to you and hopefully inspires you to look up a professional art therapist in your area to take part in a live session.

Certificate for the Course

At the end of the course you will get your certificate of completion from me-when you have finished all the modules. Further instructions are in the last module.
