There is currently no training in Cyprus.
There are only personal development seminars or workshops.

No state recognition. 
Visual art therapy is conducted in a variety of settings:
  • In private practice.
  • In association with NGOs with different client populations such as clients with learning disabilities, mental health clients, cancer patients and etc. (for children, adults, old people).
  • In Mental Health services (for children, adolescents and adults).
  • In Addiction treatment settings.                                                                           
Currently Art Therapy is not very well known in Cyprus so Art Therapists need to create their own work opportunities usually as self-employed.
There was a presentation in Ecarte 2009 in London by Maria Vassiliadou on Art Therapy and Primary school teachers.
Action research in two phases. First phase presented and published.
