🎨 Start your journey into Art Therapy this autumn!

Wondering what it’s really like to train as an art therapist? Here’s what you’ll discover in our Introductory Course — both personally and professionally:

✨ Gain a solid understanding of the foundations of art therapy: its history, core values, and how it’s used across mental health, education, and social settings.

🖌 Explore a variety of expressive techniques — from painting and collage to sculpture and mixed media — and learn how these can support emotional expression and self-awareness.

🧠 Discover how the creative process helps people process trauma, build resilience, and connect with their inner world.

📚 Dive into essential professional ethics, including how to work with confidentiality, therapeutic boundaries, and the importance of supervision. 👁 Learn how to observe and interpret artistic work in a therapeutic context, always with respect and curiosity.

👐 Most importantly, learn by doing — through hands-on exercises, group reflections, and real-life clinical vignettes that bring theory into practice. Whether you’re a mental health professional, an artist, or simply someone drawn to the healing power of creativity — this training is a journey of transformation. 🌿

🎓 How do we teach Art Therapy at Metàfora?

Our training is rooted in real cases, experiential practice, and theoretical depth—creating a holistic and progressive learning journey.

🌀 Real-World Experience
Students engage with real clinical cases from the start, building understanding through hands-on application before diving into theory.

📚 Structured in Three Levels
Our curriculum flows through an Introductory Course, Postgraduate, and Master’s, with each level building on the last—ensuring continuity and depth.

🎨 Learning from Practice
Every training level begins with experience: art therapy groups, clinical practice, roleplay, supervision, and more.

🧠 Theory Grounded in Practice
Our courses cover a wide range of approaches—from Attachment Theory to Relational Psychoanalysis and Mentalization—while exploring diverse clinical contexts.

Metàfora’s program follows the guidelines of the Spanish Association of Art Therapists (ATe), combining theory and practice to form professionals grounded, reflective, and prepared.
