Overview

Traditional talking therapies are often effective, but they do not meet the needs of all clients. Art therapy offers a non-verbal alternative that gives people a chance to explore distressing thoughts and feelings using a creative approach in a safe, controlled environment.

In this course, you will learn about the most common forms of art therapy, why it is beneficial for many groups and how aspiring art therapists can enter the field.

A regulated qualification is delivered by a learning institution which is regulated by a government body. In England, the government body which regulates courses is Ofqual. Ofqual regulated qualifications sit on the Regulated Qualifications Framework (RQF), which can help students understand how different qualifications in different fields compare to each other. The framework also helps students to understand what qualifications they need to progress towards a higher learning goal, such as a university degree or equivalent higher education award.

An endorsed course is a skills based course which has been checked over and approved by an independent awarding body. Endorsed courses are not regulated so do not result in a qualification - however, the student can usually purchase a certificate showing the awarding body's logo if they wish. Certain awarding bodies - such as Quality Licence Scheme and TQUK - have developed endorsement schemes as a way to help students select the best skills based courses for them.
