Curriculum
Our faculty members are talented educators and dedicated scholars, who have been elected to state and national leadership positions in the Virginia Art Therapy Association and the American Art Therapy Association.
Through our faculty members’ teaching methods, students in our 61.5 credit hour, two-year program engage with the elements of art therapy practice and the research that leads to improved care. Our instruction focuses on collaborative and experiential learning, reflecting on learning and applying those lessons to internships and clinical work.
