Our Programs
Overview
TATI offers two 16-month programs, an On Site Program and a Distance Learning Program. Our students are trained to integrate their art backgrounds as they acquire skills for psychotherapeutic work with clients, including children, adolescents, adults and families.
The TATI curriculum is designed to ensure students gain the knowledge and experience that will enable them to function as competent, ethical, and compassionate art therapy professionals. It is also designed to foster critical thinking, so students are actively involved in creating the learning environment, questioning dominant discourses in the field, and taking part in the production of new ideas. Graduates of the program become leaders in the field of art therapy in the areas of professional practice, research, and theory.
TATI is a College of Registered Psychotherapists of Ontario (CRPO) approved training program and graduates can become members of the CRPO upon completion of the program. TATI is also a Canadian Art Therapy Association (CATA) approved training program. Students and professionals may elect to qualify for Canadian Art Therapy Registration (RCAT), provided that they meet all additional CATA requirements. Information regarding these standards is available through the Canadian Art Therapy Association website.
