Learn how to use art to enhance your perceptual and communication skills in order to strengthen your clinical practice !

Enhancing Presence and Observation
Using art’s formal elements as tools to deepen observation, participants move beyond tendencies towards generalization present in visual perception in order to develop crucial observational skills. In addition, participants explore links between presence and observation while examining their application in diagnostic and communication know-how.

Increasing Self-Awareness and Empathic Intelligence
Working with associations and interpretations elicited from selected works, participants further a nuanced emotional and self-awareness and explore its impact on observation, engagement and communication skills.
