Art therapy: not just a tool in the tool box

I’ve been searching online therapy platforms like Psychology Today for art therapists and see profiles of people offering art therapy without having the training. Art-based activities can be a helpful tool in a mental health professional’s tool box, but you’re not getting art therapy unless the therapist’s/counsellor’s qualifications include an art therapy program like those approved by the Canadian Art Therapy Association.
