Expressing yourself in an increasingly stressful society is becoming more important than ever, this is why at Northern Guild we continue to implement the use of creative practice in our therapeutic work and in all of our training programmes.
When words can not reach what our minds want to express creative methods such as art, sandplay, movement, and acting can form alternative and often more powerful modes of communication. By recognising the restrictions of every day language and utilising these other techniques we can start to gain a greater understanding of ourselves and each other, leading to a healthier and more satisfying lifestyle.
At Northern Guild we offer truly cutting edge courses that provide an in depth exploration into the application of the arts in therapeutic practice.
Our institute offers a selection of courses which utilise these modern techniques and are fully accredited for the purpose of registration.
