includes 60 contact hours in Dance/Movement Therapy theory and skills, group process and movement observation.
It is open to practicing and student dance therapists, mental health providers, graduate and undergraduate students in

Dance therapists are employed in psychiatric hospitals, community mental health centers, special schools, correction
centers, day care centers, private practice and many other agencies.
