THE ART THERAPY WAY TRAINING PROGRAM

Engage in our specialized trauma training sessions conducted in a supportive and nurturing environment. Our therapeutic art trauma trainings aim to help organizations learn about trauma-informed care and the profound impact that the arts can have in healing and resilience. These trainings do not teach participants how to be an art therapist, but instead equip organizations in using art as a form of healing, empowerment, and self-discovery to the populations that they serve.
