The therapeutic use of art, music and story. Creative interventions for working with children and teenagers.
|
|
Facilitator: Edel Lawlor ONLINE COURSE
|
|
22nd November 2020 Fee: €110
|
This experiential training will focus on creative ways to engage, support, and connect with children and teenagers using the therapeutic powers of art, music and story! At times it can be challenging to successfully engage children or teenagers in therapeutic work. It can be difficult for children and teenagers to express themselves fully, to relate to us, to open up and share their inner worlds and conflicts. Using art, music and story can engage children at a much deeper level. These creative approaches bring fun, joy, laughter and relationships. They also provide opportunities for children and teenagers to express themselves safely and to gain deeper understanding and insight into themselves and the world around them. Lots of creative activities that can be used with children and teenagers will be explored in a fun and creative way. Join us to fill up your therapeutic tool box!

Have you ever wondered what it might be like for a child who has sensory attachment issues?
