Integrating Scenography into Therapy

Scenography is the practice of crafting staged environments or atmospheres. This course explores the therapeutic modality of merging visual arts, music, movement, and lighting into sessions with clients. By navigating the different use of art forms we can explore all senses, how they respond, what memories they hold, and what needs to be released; all the while creating a holistic and creative therapeutic environment.

This 2 CE online event is offered by the LCAT Advocacy Coalition as a fundraiser for ongoing legislative advocacy in New York State to increase access to the creative arts therapists and to protect the rights of current clients who depend on insurance to access these therapies.

Learning Objectives:

• Identify a population/client/or institution that could benefit from utilizing scenography as an art therapy modality
• Create a scenography based directive for the subject chosen.
• Determine 2-3 symptoms that can be addressed, what coping skills would be developed, and what treatment goals would be explored through the scenographic experience
