The Art Therapy Department and its programs aim to create a culture of inclusivity and social responsibility, with a strong emphasis on preparing clinicians who will meaningfully serve their communities, in addition to their work with clients.
Notre Dame of Maryland University offers undergraduate and graduate art therapy programs, including the only master's level art therapy program in Maryland that prepares graduates to become professional art therapists. In order to work as an art therapist, nationally and within the state, a master’s degree must be earned.
