Creative Arts Program
Creative Arts Therapy (CAT) is a distinctive discipline providing an aesthetic dimension and an alternative to traditional therapies. CAT. has broad application and is predicated on the belief that the ability to respond to the arts is within us all.
In CAT the focus is not on the creative ability but rather on the experience of the creative process and the meanings that may emerge. In Canada and the USA, Creative Arts Therapy sits alongside generic allied health programs as a therapeutic intervention with broad application in the arenas of both Primary and Acute Health Care systems. Creative Arts Therapy as a distinctive discipline is rapidly gaining momentum in Australia.
