This video does not say anything about what to do when having completed the art therapy course more than 2 years ago at a level lower than a Bachelors degree. I understand that having a Bachelor degree is the minimum requirement.

This is good to know! I'm debating around taking the leap of faith into Ikon BAT.

A lovely student clare had just linked this video to our school group chat and I want to express how much relief and hope I have watching this video! I am currently a second year going into third next year and have had much anxieties and doubt about the degree itself, over the two years Ive heard different opinions about becoming an art therapist which resulted in staff(teachers) either being adamant about a master's degree with no other solution or to consider a different career path using the degree, which can be quite disheartening given how much time we have already invested into this degree. Many many thanks for creating this video and sharing with us Ikon students a solution and options for our pathway 🙏🥰

THANK YOU!!! 🎉❤ I can't express how much relief I feel after hearing you explain this fully and properly! I don't understand why Ikon can't come out and explain this clearly to us bachelor students! There is so much uncertainty and anxiety among us students and Ikon has been nothing but dismissive about our concerns. Thank you for being a voice for us and I can't wait to be a part of PACFA upon graduation!

ahhhh, thank you so much. I have just gone into my second year of the Ikon Bachelor Degree, and was starting to hear that unless I did another 2 years study to get a masters I would not be able to practice. So, you were right in hear the anxiousness of peeps circulating, and wonderful for addressing it. Thank you. I look forward to meeting you one day. jac :)

Embracing , collective, birthing, crisp clean environment, ways to be, coming into being, return to valuing the old ways, collective care, belonging in community, core values, heal a broken system. Sensational!! Thank you for your passion, wisdom and inspiration!!

This is wonderful news Carla! I'm keen to follow the establishment and guidelines of this new college, as in the past when I have enquired with PACFA, I have been advised that my post graduate qualifications, professional registration and experience in music therapy are not sufficient to meet their training standards. Hopefully as the establishment of the college progresses, these issues can be monitored and worked through. Thank you for your advocacy! Natalie :)

Thanks so much for sharing this. Sounds like a wonderful book! What a lovely collaboration Kim and Tamar. 🤗

Awesome. I love stop frame animation. Well done.

Can art therapist expand their clientele from other countries now? Or you are stuck in the state your license is in?

Thank you Carla! I live in Taiwan where unfortunately we just went on lockdown. My art therapy practice is suddenly shifting online, and I'm so grateful for those like yourself who have taken the time to share your experience, insight and hope.

Thanks Carla for including the perspective. Listening to Debbie is very affirming.

Fantastic Pearl and Carla! I can so relate to your comments about teenagers in schools and them needing different forms of support in schools. The Art room is often a safe sanctuary for kids who do not fit in other places. Art teachers are feeling more pressure to be doing other things and cannot always be just hanging out in the art room at lunchtime. That's why art as therapy must be recognised and supported as a separate entity. thank you

Great vid, thanks for sharing. Really appreciate this perspective on arts therapy and how it specifically helps with mental health struggles. Recently started a channel to do vids about mental health and similar stuff, and it's great to see what others have been saying. Thanks again.

Maybe we need to interview clients who have experienced art therapy who are willing to disclose their experience. . The conversation has to shift to client choice and their understand of what works for their mental health.

Cool, I am gonna try this. Thank you for sharing Carla 😄

Great video Carla, Michelle

Dear friends, In this video I draw on a captivating range of credible source material including: -Wonderings from my daily walk. -Interviews with a panel of experts from the Australia Institute’s recent webinar “The role of the arts and artists”. -Findings from my doctoral research into sharing our stories through art. Utilising my finely tuned amateur production skills, (hahaha) I mash these golden spuds together and serve you up some hearty and compelling ideas. Join me in digesting some delicious food for thought: ways in which we can creatively co-author confident and convincing new cultural narratives through which we can understand and articulate how: The arts connect us even when we are distancing AND The arts help us to continue through times of challenging change.
