Description

Note: This course does not qualify the recipient to perform any form of therapy or counselling for any other person

This course will show you how to run several different workshops AND also give you many ideas to enable you to write a book - plus a step by step process. The course includes two books written by students on the course! The key to gaining from this course is DOING THE EXERCISES and PARTICIPATING IN THE Q/A.

The course has now been considerably expanded and contains FOUR very specific sections that can be used to run workshops as follows:

1. Workshop for teenagers

2. Workshop for Seniors

3. Workshop for the anxious

4. Workshop for vegans

These are detailed workshops that can be adapted by you and thus you have the workshop all pre-planned!

This extensive course has TWENTY-ONE main sections:

1. Creating an Art Therapy stressbook/workbook - two students so far have written books based on this course and the books are now on Amazon

2. Actually writing the book. A series of steps are talked through - together with the homework!

3. Designing and running an Art Therapy Workshop - exact guidelines are given - backed by scientific research - with plenty of example. I work through the workshop, doing the exercises, explaining how they can be done as a group

4. A section on Workshop Design, Workshop Goals and Workshop structure

5. Guidelines in running a workshop

6. Tips for running a workshop

7. Running a workshop for teenagers

8. 20 Art Therapy Exercises

9. Running a workshop for Seniors

10. Benefits of Art Therapy for Seniors

11. Preparation for the workshop

TWO recent reviews:

"I wanted to send my personal thanks to Chris Bankes Sivewright, for helping me step into my potential outside of fear and anxiety. Since I've started this course, I've started writing again, as well as started teaching workshops to a small group of over 600 people. I'm sincerely looking forward to continuing with your course, as well as future courses, and peeling back more layers of my own perception. With sincere thanks!"
