College of Complementary Medicine

This course is unique in its approach to health and wellbeing. The course unites ancient and modern wisdom. The course is based on a shamanic model and is underpinned with the scientific theory and insights of both mainstream and transpersonal psychology as our students learn the therapeutic qualities of drawing, clay work, sculpture, painting, pastels and collage creation.

This is a highly experiential and practical course that is incredibly valuable for people who want to work in mapping and navigating life crises and transitions. The depth of knowledge you’ll gain also enables you to work effectively with both mental health issues and spiritual crises as well as how to differentiate between the two.
