THE Workbook for the more experienced Art Therapy
student!
1
Introduction
This time it is different.
This time you do some research.
This time the WHOLE workbook is questions.
You may not like it but ask yourself this:
How many Art Therapy courses on Udemy have regular workbooks?
Also, remember, this is YOUR workbook. So always put your answers in THIS WORKBOOK but also share them in the Q/A.
See where you go.
All of this is very practical and by sharing your answers you’ll be able to ADD to YOUR WORKBOOK and….
a. Become more and more proficient.
b. Publish it maybe?
c. Add to it time and time again.
d. Actually (crossed fingers) enjoy doing it!
WHEN /IF you finish it and really really have answered every question then you get a R-E-W-A-R-D.
Any one of my courses for free.
All you have to do is message me saying:
‘I have completed THE WORKBOOK and I therefore claim my fantastic course’ *
Note: You can omit the word ‘fantastic’ if you require….
Plus, if you’re chasing the Oxford Diploma, you HAVE TO DO THIS WORKBOOK as well as the other work!

WHY IS THIS CALLED THE WORKBOOK?
Because, yes, ideally it is done in July but maybe you come late. So just do this anytime BUT the important thing is to only do one day at a time. To allow for
reflection. And also make sure you ONLY post your answers in the LOOOOONG thread on THE WORKBOOK. YOU START THE THREAD if one does not exist
but always check first. So, the first person to do this workbook STARTS THE THREAD.
Then you can go through the thread also and add to YOUR WORKBOOK.
BUT WHAT IF THE THREAD BECOMES TOO LONG?
Then I start a new one. What must NOT NOT NOT happen is a whole load of individual threads that block the Q/A and confuse people.
