American Art Therapy Association,“Art therapy is an integrative mental health and human services profession that enriches the lives of individuals, families, and communities through active art-making, creative process, applied psychological theory, and human experience within a psychotherapeutic relationship.”This shows how art therapy has evolved, merging artistic techniques with psychological concepts.Despite artistic expression having centuries of examples, art therapy is actually a relatively new field.
