Abstract

Art therapy Modeling Mental health counselors--Training of
This paper outlines the development and implementation of a clay consultation method. It was created to promote peer socialization and connection amongst counseling trainees within a counseling center setting. This method provided an introduction into the use of creative expression as a clinical processing tool in exploring and reflecting on trainee development using the medium of clay. Observations gathered from its implementation appeared to elicit a playful, joyful, and insightful experience in conceptualizing clinical development in a creative way. Reflections and recommendations are offered for future exploration for trainees in college counseling centers and beyond.
