I took the Professional Certificate in Art Therapy for Mental Health at Stanmore School of Business, and it was a great experience. The course covered a wide range of topics, from the basics of art therapy to more advanced techniques. I found the module on 'Group Art Therapy' to be particularly useful, as it gave me some valuable insights into how to facilitate art therapy sessions with groups. The course materials were good, but I thought some of the videos could be more engaging. Overall, I'm satisfied with the course, and I feel like I gained some useful knowledge and skills. One thing that really stood out to me was the support from the instructors - they were always quick to respond to my questions and provide feedback on my assignments.
