Jeonju University offers a bachelor's degree in Creative Arts Psychotherapy, taught in English in the Wansan-gu district of South Korea. This field applies creative and expressive activities, such as art, music, drama, and movement, as tools within a therapeutic process, drawing on psychology and counseling theory to support mental health and emotional well-being. Students in a program of this kind typically study foundational psychology and human development alongside specialized coursework in art-based and expressive therapy techniques, learning how creative expression can help clients process emotions, trauma, or difficult experiences in ways that traditional talk therapy alone may not always reach. Coursework often blends theoretical study of counseling and psychotherapy approaches with practical, studio-based or workshop-style sessions where students practice facilitating creative exercises, alongside instruction in professional and ethical standards for therapeutic practice. Graduates can pursue paths into counseling and therapy settings, community mental health organizations, schools, hospitals, or rehabilitation centers, often depending on further licensure or graduate training required in a given country, as well as further academic study in psychology, counseling, or art therapy specifically. Interest in mental health support through creative and expressive methods has grown internationally, and a program based in South Korea offers students exposure to how these approaches are applied within a Korean cultural and clinical context. The degree runs over four years, with new students admitted in April and October each year, an intake pattern that differs from the more typical March start. Delivered fully in English, the program allows international students to study creative arts psychotherapy in South Korea without first needing Korean-language proficiency.
