Art Therapy
Art Therapy is a protected title, and it is an offence if you use a protected title if you are not registered with the Health Professionals Council (HPC).

It is also an offence to imply that you are one of the professions that the HPC regulates if you are not.

Art Therapy is based on the belief that the creative process involved in the making of art is healing and life-enhancing. Through creating art and talking about art and the process of art making with an art therapist, one can increase awareness of self, cope with symptoms, stress, and traumatic experiences, enhance cognitive abilities, and enjoy the life-affirming pleasures of artistic creativity.
