CAT 242 - Poetry/Bibliotherapy for the Helping Professional


Semester Hours: 3
January
An elective graduate course to acquaint students with the fundamentals of poetry and bibliotherapy as it is being practiced today. Every helping professional needs effective tools to encourage communication and develop honest self-expression and emotional awareness. Poetry, literature, and various forms of the written word are used as dynamic therapeutic modalities in hospitals, schools, nursing homes, recreational and rehabilitation centers and libraries. Through lectures and experiential workshops, professional helpers learn how to incorporate expressive techniques into their work, as well as their personal lives.
