Overview

Art therapy is a human-service profession that engages clients in using drawing, paintings, sculpture or other forms of artwork as the key component to mental, physical and emotional healing. The art therapy program at Hood College will guide students through methods of combining and refocusing cutting-edge therapeutic techniques and approaches. Housed within the Department of Psychology and Counseling, in collaboration with the Department of Art and Archaeology, art therapy draws on intensive clinical partnerships that are a part of Hood College's nursing, social work and counseling programs. Art therapy blends aspects of science and art, giving students the advanced skills and confidence to guide others through methods of emotional healing. An education in art therapy places students on a path to embody the central message of the College’s mission—empowering students to use their heart, mind and hands. While this is not a professional degree, it will prepare students for both a master’s degree and then licensure in art therapy, while remaining within the liberal arts through a combination of humanities and social science offerings.
