By Lynne Perry on 6/26/2026

I have an expressive arts therapy masters degree, although now licensed. I am an art teacher, as well. I feel he is not as knowledgeable as I would have liked. I need a coaching certificate for my business so took this course. I lived internationally, as well. I feel I could teach a course like this better for someone who wants to actually coach others. This is just a lot of facts that we could now find on AI.

By Markéta Sedláčková on 9/7/2025

I LOVE THIS COURSE, IT WAS A DEEP DIVE INTO MYSELF AND IT OPENED MANY NEW POINTS OF VIEW AT MYSELF, INNER AND ALSO OUTER WORLD, THEIR INTERCONNECTION INTO ONE, BROUGHT KIND OF LIGHTNESS OF PERCEPTION, EXPERIENCE OF FLOW AND EXPRESSION OF MYSELF THROUGH ART. THANK YOU SO MUCH. MARKÉTA

By Ilat Knayzeh on 7/22/2025

The exercises are very interesting, yet the fact that there is nothing happening on screen is boring, no interaction whatsoever. Reading the manual that I downloaded at the beginning of the course was enough.

By Lorie Fossa on 2/6/2025

Very True! I have experienced this impact directly. I went through a debilitating depression and I was not functioning, I found The Zentangle Method by accident and I slowly began to regain my function and now I use it with the CPTSD that remains. I also believe in it so much I became a Certified Zentangle Teacher! Art therapy and God saved my life.

By Anna Inoue on 1/18/2025

I found the art therapy techniques step by step guide very useful and helpful. Enjoyed practicing and learning new techniques that took me into a world of joy ! Also, 38 The emotional intelligence for professional growth is a must practice. Thank you!

By Kavita garg on 12/15/2024

This course is well explained for basic information and all compiled together, but could have made more interesting, well provided with notes so the class seemed monotonous in middle. Rest it was very informative. Thank you Krishna sir.

By Abdel Madrigal Cortés on 8/29/2024

Great information about all the diseases art therapy is useful to manage! Just a tip, if you could get the reference of the articles you mention about the scientific studies and share those references pleease

By Heather MacDonald on 8/18/2024

I don't know what I expected from this course. I enjoyed it because it presented me with a lot of good ideas for making art as a therapeutic practice. I only gave it three stars because I wanted the presenter to continue speaking rather than putting up slides for me to read about specific art therapy exercises. I like to listen to courses while I draw. This didn't allow me to do that.

By Janis Uccellini Pascarella on 7/6/2024

I am an End-of-Life Doula, and I companion my clients for as long as a year before death. I am an artist, and want to learn/understand more of how I can involve/explore them at this time with art to bring an understanding of their present state and relieve anxiety and allow peace to enter into mind, body and spirit.

By Keosha Craft on 5/16/2024

So I never thought that I would be taking a class like this, but here I am, and I'm not disappointed at all. I loved the way he explained the lecture as a whole, and he's very knowledgeable. I have always been a fan of color therapy so it was just a refresher. What I wasnt expecting is the different art styles and how each of them is used when you're dealing with a client, or if you're using it for yourself. I really enjoyed the exercises the most. I would recommend.
