Southwestern College is fully accredited by the Higher Learning Commission. 
We offer a holistic, integrative approach to mental health, emphasizing experiential learning and the personal growth and consciousness of the student/therapist.
Adjunct Faculty for M.A. in Art Therapy/Counseling Program
Southwestern College’s M.A. in Art Therapy/Counseling is approved by the 
American Art Therapy Association. It includes a lot of art-making with an experiential and holistic focus, and an emphasis on the personal growth and consciousness of the student/therapist. Our program allows graduates to sit for licensing in both Art Therapy and Counseling (this is unlike most Art Therapy programs.)
Please note that some Art Therapy/Counseling courses require instructors to have an ATR-BC, as required by AATA.
