COURSE DETAILS

Overview

Psychologist, artist, and art therapy pioneer Judy Rubin, PhD relays how clients bring experiences into therapy that cannot be readily put into words, including impressions, images, dreams, memories, and traumas stored through the senses. Watch video clips of her engaging in art therapy with clients and learn the types of questions, tactics, and methods she employed. Through this rich discussion, she and Psychotherapy.net founder, Victor Yalom, will show you the power and potential of bringing art into therapy with clients of all ages.

Rubin and Yalom provide viewers insightful perspectives that are sure to pique your interest. You’ll discover simple ways of bringing art into therapy and give your clients new ways of expressing themselves. Help your client access parts of themselves they might otherwise be unable to and give them the opportunity to explore gifts, talents, and strengths that they (and you) are unaware of.

Rubin began her career as the Art Lady on Mr. Rogers Neighborhood, which then evolved into decades of teaching, practice, supervision, and building a vast library of videos through her non-profit organization, Expressive Media Inc. This year, she entrusted these videos to Psychotherapy.net. By engaging with this one-of-a-kind webinar, Rubin will entice you, as Mr. Rogers did her to “Try it, you’ll like it.”

What you'll learn

  • Discuss the limits of verbal therapy while considering the inclusion of expressive media
  • Design treatment plans that incorporate creative/expressive materials in therapy
  • Plan therapeutic interventions that incorporate client descriptions and associations to their artwork
