Calling Art Therapy advocates, activists, and allies: You're invited to join us this Tuesday, 6-7 pm! 🗳 📯 💌

In this Art Therapy Advocacy meeting, you'll have the opportunity to take advantage of group accountability to tackle those tasks and to-dos you've been putting off. Bring along a project—whether it's your notes, updating a treatment plan, letter, craft, or journal page—and work on it alongside fellow Art Therapists who understand and support you. You'll have the chance to receive live feedback or simply get things done.

Our Mission

The Art Therapy Association of Colorado, an affiliate of American Art Therapy Association, develops awareness of the practice and profession of art therapy throughout Colorado, maintains and improves standards of practice, and provides resources for its members and the general public. The practice of Art Therapy requires a minimum of a Master's degree from an accredited art therapy graduate program; two years of post-graduate supervision resulting in the ATR credentials (Registered Art Therapist).

Because the educational requirements and post graduate training of art therapists is commensurate with social workers and professional counselors, Art Therapists are eligible to become Licensed Professional Counselors in many states, including Colorado.
