    I love to paint, and find that art is a type of therapy for me. I would love to get a degree in it and help others who might benefit from it. Please contact me for more information. Connie Worth

    Hello COnnie,
    My sister, who is deaf, is very interested in becoming a art therapist. Do you have any information available?

    I have provided her email address above.

    Thanks so much!

    Could anyone who has attended Marywood comment? I’m interested in hearing a student’s perspective.

    Cedar Crest College in Allentown, PA also offers a Bachelor’s in Art Therapy. My daughter will begin in the Fall.
