I hope you are well. I am writing to let you know that we are now accepting and processing applications for our 2023 Principles of Art Therapy Certificate course which will begin in Leixlip in January 2023. This is a very exciting initiative between The Children's Therapy Centre and CIT Crawford College of Art & Design (MTU). The Principles of Art Therapy Certificate (formerly Art Therapy Certificate Foundation Course) is a QQI level 8 (10 credit course) comprising of two 5 credit assessed modules. This course provides an opportunity to explore Art Therapy within a group setting. Each module students will participate in experiential workshops with qualified arts therapists. A variety of approaches to the process of Art Therapy will be introduced through workshops, lectures and seminars. Some of the places have already been filled, so if you are interested it is best to get your application in sooner rather than later.

- Each course module is themed around a key principle of the art therapy process. Online lectures will explore how the process works in a range of contexts, and with clients of various ages, from Psychiatry, Probation, Palliative Care, Education, to Learning Disabilities. Topics vary from year to year.
- Workshops, delivered by qualified, registered arts therapists, will provide participants with experience of a range of different approaches to facilitating a group; directive, theme-based, non-directive etc.
- Seminars offer opportunities to ask questions and discuss ideas with visiting and course tutors.
- Participants are required to complete a couple of written assignments and keep a personal journal throughout the course.
A QQI level 8 Principles of Art Therapy Certificate is awarded by CIT on successful completion of the course. (Special Purpose Award)
