Creative arts and mental health msc.

Part of: Medicine , Global Health and Development and Psychology

The programme offers an interdisciplinary approach to knowledge and research in arts and mental health, with a particular emphasis on theatre and performance. This innovative and unique MSc is for you if you are a recent graduate from any arts discipline or from a mental health related field (psychology, health sciences, social sciences and related areas), as well as professionals working in the fields of applied arts practice, mental health, education, social work and related areas. The programme is jointly run by the Centre for Psychiatry and the Department of Drama.

  • Learn about the application of the creative arts to research, practice, education, advocacy and activism in the field of mental health
  • Study the ways in which mental health experiences are represented in the arts and in popular culture
  • Consider how arts practice can critique and expand both clinical and popular understanding of mental health and the mental health system
  • Learn how mental health professionals, arts practitioners and others interested in mental health and wellbeing work together in both clinical and non-clinical environments
  • Develop your own area of expertise in the field of the arts and mental health through options of placements, arts practice and research

Study options

  • Full-time September 2024 | 1 year
  • Part-time September 2024 | 2 years

What you'll study

This programme is grounded in both arts and science methodologies and perspectives. Examine mental health theory and practice through a critical approach which establishes the central role of the arts in mental health. Study the history, theory and practice of the arts for mental health promotion, the representation of mental health in the arts, and arts intervention for the prevention and treatment of mental distress (with a focus on theatre and performance).

You will study how the creative arts can be used to think critically about concepts and experiences of mental health and the mental health system. You will investigate how arts practices can be means of prevention and intervention in mental health, as well as ways of engaging the public with these concerns. 

Through practice and critical writing, you will undertake research in specific areas of arts and mental health through critical analysis of representation of mental health within the arts and the applications of the arts in specific contexts, to alleviate or prevent mental distress and improve mental health. The course is not clinical, therefore you will not leave with a clinical accreditation in mental health practice or art therapy. Rather, the course is based on practice, research and critical thinking. You will be encouraged to develop your own specialist interest in relation to the arts and mental health, whether you come from an arts or a science background.

We aim to develop pioneering research in best practices for better, more effective collaborations among arts practitioners, healthcare practitioners and patients, so we can best serve the interests of all within mental health, social care and education systems.

Additional costs

You may have to pay for entrance charges and travel for performances, exhibitions and field visits, although such costs will be kept to a minimum. Set books are usually available through the library, but you may wish to buy your own copy in some instances.

Compulsory/Core modules

Performing mental health.

"This module explores the performance of mental health and mental illness as they have been defined across history, and in the contemporary moment. In particular the module asks how the social construction of mental health is reflected in and produced by performance. While the module focuses on the types of subjectivity and selfhood that have emerged in the history of theatre and performance, students are also encouraged to explore ways other creative practices engage these topics. Special attention is given to representations of 'madness' and `mental illness' produced in historical performance, as well as to how these representations have since been reinterpreted and adapted to reflect current constructions and concerns. In addition we will consider a variety of contemporary and collaborative performance practices that interrogate attitudes relating to normative concepts of mental health, and even try to intervene into policy and care. Students will be introduced to broad debates on mental health from within the Humanities and informed by the approaches of disability studies. "

Critical Mental Health Sciences

This module examines contemporary debates within the field of mental health theory and practice from the critical premise that the dominant, so-called `biomedical¿ model of mental health is in urgent need of reform. Students will learn about critical approaches to assessment and diagnosis, psychiatric treatments, and mental health theory. They will also start to consider how the arts can contribute to a critical approach to mental health. Examples of themes include: critical psychiatry; the Power Threat Meaning Framework; Open Dialogue; a psychoanalytic framework for understanding unconscious emotional processing; social justice and mental health; survivors¿ and service users¿ narratives and critiques, including through the arts.

Critical Encounters in Arts and Mental Health

This module examines productive intersections between the arts and mental health from a critical perspective. It investigates the use of arts-based practices as research, education, health intervention, advocacy and activism in mental health. Students will learn about contemporary art practice which interrogates, critiques and/or contributes to mental health theory and practice. Examples of themes include: art interventions with groups and communities for the promotion of mental health and as preventive measure; creative enquiry for professional development; a psychoanalytic framework for understanding the role of the arts in emotional processing; artistic practices which give voice to survivors¿ narratives and concepts, including towards activism.

Dissertation

This module is designed for students undertaking a research project in their chosen area of mental health. Although this module is predominately independent study, students are expected to complete a set of formative assessments and have regular contact with their supervisor in order to monitor progress.

Elective modules

Theatre for young people: pedagogy in practice.

This module offers a group placement within a young people's theatre company or other relevant arts organisation working with young people. The organisations offering the group placement will normally be working with young people in mental health contexts, or with young people who have experiences of social and mental health issues. It offers the opportunity to observe, learn and develop arts-based teaching methodologies with and for young people and to explore the social, mental and creative benefits of the arts for young people.

Performance, Activism, Social Justice

This module explores how performance contributes to social justice, especially through activism. It examines: activist movements, such as Black Lives Matter, Extinction Rebellion, and activism for indigenous rights; activist practices and actions, spanning pacifism and violence, and including occupations, events like carnivals, and performances such as verbatim theatre; and intersecting theories of activism, social justice, and performance, such as Boal¿s Poetics of the Oppressed, Judith Butler¿s theory of assembly, and Christina Sharpe¿s theory of wake-work, drawing on wider literatures in, for example, critical race theory, environmental humanities, queer theory, law, and disability rights. The module focuses on the present but explores historical roots, such as the Diggers and Levellers of the English Civil War, South African Township Theatre, women's suffrage movements, struggles for abolition and decolonisation, and activism in relation to disability, AIDS, and more. It explores arguments for activism's benefits but also explorations of its limits. It considers how performance studies can help us better understand ¿ and potentially practice ¿ activism for social justice, and how performance might particularly contribute to action for social change.

Text, Self, Performance

This module explores through practice the relation between text, self, and performance, in order to investigate critically the way performance may articulate individual experience, to invoke or confirm aspects of collective identity, and to complicate the assumed relations between performances and texts. Through weekly practical workshops and contextual research, you will explore forms, methodologies and topics including (for example): writing for solo performance, live art, verbatim and documentary theatre, improvisation, protest performance, and oral histories. Your practical investigations will be embedded in critical readings in identity politics and social justice, in relation to identity formations including gender, sexuality, race, class and ability. In your engagement with found or created texts, you will consider truth and dissemblance, authenticity and representation, auto/biography and disclosure, particularity and community, the politics of representation, and the ethics of performance. Throughout, an emphasis is placed on testing the limits of familiar approaches to creating and performing texts.

  • 67% Modules
  • 33% Dissertation

You will write a 10,000-15,000-word final dissertation, using an art-based or science-based methodology or an original and comprehensive systematic literature review.

Where applicable, you will be required to obtain ethics applications for your research.

You will be matched with at least one dissertation supervisor from either Drama or Psychiatry, based on your topic and methods of research, who will offer you individual tutorials.

You will learn through a mixture of specialist lectures delivered by academics, clinicians and artists, seminars and group work, practice-based workshops and field visits. Research skills are taught in dedicated seminars.

As part of your chosen elective you may undertake a work placement within an organisation that operates in a field related to creative arts and mental health. Alternatively, you can develop your own arts practice through a dedicated module.
