CAT 224 - Psychopharmacological/Psychiatric Issues in Art Therapy
Spring
This course studies a person from various perspectives. We look at the medical
model: diagnosis (DSM-IVR), medication (psychopharmacology), the psychiatric mental
status examination, and the person’s internal experiences. From the perspective
of non-medical interventions, we study appropriate art therapy techniques and
approaches to remedy the problem. We specifically explore affective disorders,
psychosis, substance abuse, and childhood disturbances. Students are exposed to
the medical, psychological, and expressive aspects of clinical treatment.
Credits: 1.5 s.h.
