I have been practicing art therapy since 2018. I know the power that it can bring to a session and the benefit it has for clients and patients. Having a license that regulates this profession will allow for better patient care and greater support for those individuals practicing. The regulations and requirements should be in line with the ATCB and other states who have already implemented such licenses in order to keep consistency across the profession. Art therapy is a lifesaving profession that will benefit from regulation in our to protect patients and better equip professionals.
