What’s New?
Art therapy treatment may become more accessible
For some trauma victims, expressing their thoughts through art can be a lot easier than talking about it, especially for children and service members.
Art therapists say the industry is growing, but because Florida doesn’t have a licensure program, some therapists are leaving the state, but a bill in the Florida legislature would change that.
Embodying Healing through Art Therapy
Artmaking is a really embodied form of healing. For decades, the medical industry has focused on pathology – you have a symptom, or a deficit, and medicine is about addressing the thing that’s wrong. In contrast, creative arts therapies are about shifting the perspective to see what we can do to strengthen the vital part of people rather than focusing on their deficits. It’s a very holistic approach, and a very whole-body approach.
Ground-breaking research series on health benefits of the arts
The research series will be grounded on a novel conceptual framework on the important role of the arts in supporting health. It will focus on noncommunicable diseases, a leading cause of death and disability worldwide. It will also raise awareness about the existing evidence base and offer recommendations to improve global policy guidance on topics such as scaling up promising interventions through social prescribing and intersectoral collaboration between the arts, health, education, and social care sectors.
