SWK 3410 Becoming a Reflective Practitioner: Self Care, Spirituality and Art

(formerly SWK 341)

This course explores the concept of spirituality as it broadly relates to the ethical foundations of professional practice and Molloy’s four pillars of Dominican life. Self-care is increasingly recognized in the scholarly literature as essential for those entering challenging professional programs such as nursing, education, social work, counseling and music therapy. Students will develop an appreciation for developing a spiritual practice through various experiential opportunities with particular focus on artful contemplative practice. This method incorporates watercolors, reflective words and silence.
