There is currently a surge in mental health difficulties in children, with large numbers of young people presenting
to paediatric hospitals and to CAMHS with deliberate self harm, and conditions including depression, anxiety disorders and eating
disorders. Our child psychiatry and psychotherapy group in UCD has been running a clinical training programme in Child Art Psychotherapy where students provide child art psychotherapy in CAMHS settings, under supervision. It is planned that this introductory course will allow some paediatricians in training and some child psychiatrists in training to join with the trainees in Child Art Psychotherapy for some of their modules while other modules will be delivered separately. Paediatricians and child psychiatrists in training will attend a Clinical Practice module, with trainees engaging in the practice of child art psychotherapy in their paediatric or CAMHS workplaces. This course will provide both practical and theoretical training on child mental health disorders, introduction to psychotherapy models and an introduction to the provision of psychotherapy.
