Art Therapy Licensure
 

My wife is a licensed Art Therapist in Maryland and DC who's excluded from many Art Therapist jobs in Virginia due to the lack of licensure in Virginia. Because of this, she currently works in Maryland as an Art Therapist rather than her home state where she'd prefer to work and help those in need. As a result, the people of Virginia are losing out a wonderfully talented and experienced Art Therapist. Please expedite the credential process for Art Therapists in Virginia.
