Training in Creative Arts Therapies

Professional Training of Creative Arts Therapists:

Creative arts therapists are Master’s level graduates from an iacat recognised, accredited training course.

As well as proficiency in their art form, creative arts therapists are trained in psychology, psychotherapeutic theory, physiology, social/
behavioral sciences and human development.

Creative arts therapists are trained in clinical practice, theory and research. This includes assessment, treatment, planning, delivery, and
evaluation.

Ongoing personal therapy and clinical supervision are an integral part of the training.
