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.
