The M.A. Consciousness in Action program at Southwestern College offers a transformational approach to personal growth and spiritual development. It prepares students to integrate a holistic and experiential learning model into their daily lives to effect change within and without. The program prepares graduates to affect change in their communities and/or field of study through imaginative, creative learning methods.
Students will learn to identify and transform systemic power structures, internal blocks that limit authentic connection, and unconscious patterns that stifle awareness and, therefore, eliminate true choice.
Southwestern College is a consciousness-centered graduate school in Santa Fe, New Mexico offering Master’s Degrees in Counseling and Art Therapy/Counseling leading to licensure; we also offer specialty certificates for ongoing professional development. Our innovative curriculum integrates personal growth, consciousness, and holistic professional training in intimate experiential classrooms.
The Master’s program in Art Therapy/Counseling emphasizes the use of the visual arts as a therapeutic approach in clinical, educational, community and rehabilitation settings. While visual arts is the primary therapeutic modality, the creative process may be supported by classroom instruction and experiences in the use of drama, movement and music therapy. SWC also offers opportunities in Sandplay/Sandtray therapy.
