Description

The Art Therapist Training with Early Years, Child Counselling, Psychology & Coaching Training course is uniquely crafted for those passionate about fostering emotional resilience and cognitive growth in children. The training combines the therapeutic potential of art with robust concepts in child counselling, psychology, coaching and mentoring, and early years care.

Throughout the course, you will explore how art therapy can be used in tandem with child counselling strategies to support children experiencing emotional, behavioural, or developmental challenges.
