The Programs in Expressive Arts are designed to further training and research in the therapeutic, coaching, consultative, educational and conflict transformational use of the arts. The programs encourage students to take seriously the tradition and disciplines of the arts as they have evolved over the course of human history. In all societies up to the present, the arts have played an essential role in enabling human beings to make sense of their world, to live with suffering when necessary and to be able to celebrate the joy of life.

The field of Intermodal Expressive Arts Therapy, Consulting, Education, Coaching and Conflict Transformation and Peacebuilding has grown considerably in the last twenty years and has developed an international reputation with professional representation in many countries. The International Network of Expressive Arts Training Centers interconnects institutes in North America, South America, Europe and the Middle East.
