CPD points for HPCSA registered professionals

Are you eager to re-engage and re-immerse yourself in the next chapter of your Art Therapy learning process? Are you ready to pause, book time out, experience, learn, reflect and enhance your growing insight and development?

After completion of the Art Therapy 3-Day Seminar or the Art Therapy 5-Day Intensive course – this ADVANCED Seminar is built on previously explored developed concepts, ideas, creativity, reflection and group experiences.

In your 3-day or 5-day Intro to Art Therapy workshop you already experienced the following:

  • Exploration of the inter-relationship between play, art and therapy
  • The value of boundaries in Art Therapy
  • An understanding of a psychodynamic approach
  • How art is a bridge between the conscious and unconscious
  • Personal experiential art making and reflection processes
  • Freud’s ‘free association’ through the image-making process
  • Potential layers and the nature of symbols
  • The complexities of interpretation
  • Journeyed between the unknown and the known

In this 3-day PART 2 journey there will be a continuation in the development of theory, exploration of case studies and fresh experiential art making opportunities. Perhaps further explorations of Freud, Klein, Winnicott, Jung, Gestalt, Schaverian, Archetypes, Directive and Non-directive approaches, Group dynamics, journaling… digital art online... anticipation awaits!

What will you gain from this course?

Personally - an invaluable investment for furthering your creativity, self-reflection, insight, experiential learning and personal development.

Professionally - the new skills and experiences gained can further be adapted to and incorporated into any/all professional work spheres including therapeutic interventions, teaching art, the running of groups with children or adults, corporate facilitation, coaching, etc.

As you already have experienced, facilitator Sam Davis follows a traditional Psychodynamic approach and teaching of fundamental concepts, however a diverse eclectic tool kit is used when appropriate and may include a further combination of Art Therapy interventions, coaching, archetypes, numerology, mindfulness, laughter, breathing, life skills and Journey Therapy techniques.

The seminar is facilitated by Samantha Davis, internationally trained and registered Art Psychotherapist (HPCSA AT 0000469) with more than 22 years’ experience.

“Sam, you are so experienced and it is evident in your facilitation. You are really good at your job and do it with such professionalism.”

- Meryl -

“The course went beyond my personal expectations. I came thinking that we would mainly be learning about Art Therapy, which we did, but it was a big transformational experience for me which I was not expecting.”

- Megan Main-Baillie (Honours Psychology Student) -

“The Art Therapy was a gentle, creative and fun way to build trust and deliver outcomes. It was enjoyable and an extremely valuable experience in our Strategy workshop.”

- Daniella: Business Connexion -

“I didn’t realize how much I NEEDED Art Therapy. It was like rain falling on desert soil. And I have grown so much. My heart feels alive again. I will be back!”

- Heather (Owner of a Montessori Nursery School, Degree in Television) -

“It was a time to forget about the problems and the world around me. Sam is a brilliant facilitator. Even though I was nervous, it was a time for me to reflect and to enjoy how therapeutic art can be. It calmed the storm that reigned inside of me. The Mandala Art Therapy workshop is like having a picnic next to a quiet river. You granted time to reach that point where you can become quiet and can experience the Universe.”

- Anonymous -

“A very comprehensive and thorough intro into Art Therapy. Covered a lot of ground in 5 days and left with a priceless manual and a warm glow.”

- Kat -

“It was the best week of my life, I learnt that I could always be happy as long as I was in a happy and comfortable space, and if I wasn’t I needed to create that space. I learnt that I was in control and all I had to do was to take charge and have fun and paint on a bigger board i.e. see the bigger picture. I am so grateful for the opportunity that came my way and that I was able to embrace and savor it.”
