Try the following task to get a better understanding if a career in Art Therapy might be for you.
Task: Set a timer for 20 minutes, gather magazines and art materials to create a collage about “What is Art Therapy?”.
During that time try to be led freely by the materials rather than focusing on what your collage will look like at the end. There is no right or wrong way to make the college and it can be very experimental, subjective and personal to your own reflections.
Once the time is up – reflect on what you have created. What do you notice? Have you got further questions about art therapy that you want to explore? What most interests you about art therapy as a career?
