EXPRESSIVE ARTS THERAPY TRAINING PROGRAM


Philosophy

Picture
The CREATE Institute Expressive Arts training program provides a theoretical basis in the field of Expressive Arts Therapy, while familiarizing students with those elements of therapeutic practice common to all approaches. As well as theory, we emphasize experiential learning, in which students are encouraged to explore the different dimensions of artistic practice in community and in individual studio work. We especially encourage intermodal work in our classes and workshops. We also stress an adult-education model where students are recognized as having the capacity to understand and shape their own learning process. Students are expected to be self-directed in their learning, to work through the obstacles that may interfere with their training and to discover the resources that can help them learn. To this end, students are required to be in expressive arts therapy during their enrollment in the program.

"CREATE learning promotes self awareness and individual growth, to allow for a higher understanding of human experiences through creative arts expression. Training at CREATE Institute is a journey into the unknown, uncovering each individuals ability to heal and grow through ones own knowledge in body, mind and soul awareness’s using the arts. It motivates and encourages new discoveries of healing.
The 3 year process of discovery, experience and expression allowed for the unfolding of understanding to occur. I continue to expand my growth in myself and for my clients through what I learned there"
.  Corene Jonat


We emphasize both creativity and relationship

At CREATE Institute we train students to acquire not only the skills that they need but also the self-development that is necessary to become a good therapist. Through the combination of class-work, readings, practicum experience, practice therapy sessions, studio work and personal therapy, students go through an intensive educational process that provide a solid basis for psychotherapeutic work. We are proud of the school we have shaped in Toronto, and continue to develop in ways that will work for students, clients and fit our changing world.
