“Art therapy is an expanding and exciting field to be entering at this time. Here at SWC we integrate theories of consciousness, self-care and transformational learning to prepare creative and competent professionals in art therapy. The spiritual aspects of art making are an essential part of SWC’s program. Faculty engage students in an exploration of art making and the art image as a healing process. Students are encouraged to discover their individual vision and style as professionals in the art therapy field. The world is an open place in need of creativity.”
