Too dry, too much focus on cultural differences and information on regulations, law with constant reminder that need to take more classes.
not enough actual explanations and clear instructions on how to become knowledgeable in therapy itself. I feel like for the most it was not very informative for me. Like a very long introduction what class is about but very little to use.
I learned some art therapy techniques to fuse with coaching and some cool exercises to try with clients
Overall, the course was worth it to me for my specific interests, needs, goals.I started 1st day of last month and finished oct. 13th. The information is accurate, the course is legit. Some improvements can be made- I hope they are considered and implemented.
What’s good:
I have a ICF life coaching certification and I can say that what this course teaches about life coaching is accurate.
I did alot of research before taking this course- I already knew that you don’t need a certification- ICF or not, to be a life coach. (But, getting one from ICF is recognized, credible and keeps you from the programs that are selling scams.) I also already knew that to be an art therapist in the U.S. you have to have a master’s degree. I specifically wanted to learn about how I could fuse art techniques into coaching. This course did exactly that so it was worth the money for me.
What can be improved:
I do think that the educators and writers of the material should go back and update it. They did put alot of detail into the material but there's typos (like the word enroll is commonly misspelled) and some things could be worded better. I think some of the titles should be changed for the courses. (Example: there’s two different modules titled: “Intro to Art Therapy” but they’re on 2 different things) (Example 2: the review questions ask things in a way they weren’t worded in the material so you’re like I didn’t see that and you go back but you can’t find it)
I think they should make things as clear as possible as to what the courses are and what they aren’t. During the 2nd module I think, the material started to address that indeed art therapy and art life coaching are different and have different educational paths and credentials. They even suggest being overseen by professional art therapists if we’ll be going the practitioner route in our personal practices. But, alot of people don’t know this before taking the course and they should.
Clarity is so important when learning- sometimes I felt confused and wish there was someone I could ask- a teacher. Maybe I could have reached out to their customer service team and received the insight I was looking for but I didn’t know how long that would take. (Later after writing this review they let me know 24-48 they respond :) )
The platform was alil slow to load and I was also unable to use the note taking field provided but the search feature worked though if I wanted to look up keywords within each section.
The course material has beautiful art work and designs welcoming you into each module; even on the website when you’re browsing the courses-so I was surprised that the certificate was so the opposite..I think they should also put the same design effort into the digital certificates. Im not sure what the printed ones look like- I wasn’t keen on the idea to pay extra to have it printed. After I downloaded my digital certificate I redesigned it and made it prettier.
If you’re looking to learn some art techniques to fuse with your coaching practice, give this course a try. You’ll learn how to integrate those techniques into your coaching and walk away with alot of cool exercises to try with your clients as well.
Very good experience thanks to the notions I pumped into. The practice with other members and interaction about the studied object to conduct sessions would be a surplus.
Thanks
I would have liked video or imagery, but the content itself was useful and having worked in coaching and in facilitating wellness concepts and creative courses this provided further depth and also a pathway to work more indepth 1-1 coaching feeling confident to include art/creative options to suit the client. I believe the integration of art/creativity and coaching go so well.
This was a great intro course to Sylvotherapy with a lot of tools and exercises that can be used right away to offer Sylvotherapy to friends, family, and to start a career in the field. There is a lot of reading and so if you are more of a visual person then this may be a bit of a challenge. However, as you can complete it at your own pace, it is still a really great first step!
I introduce massage students to a very shallow or limited bit of information of Ayurveda (we have limited time). I would like to say that this lesson, so far, has been such a delight and so very rich in information. I am on mod 3. I am awaiting what is to come!
