Many different short-time trainings are implemented as well in University, as in Private sector.
4 orientations are officially admitted:
- Psychoanalytical
- Cognitive-Behavioral
- Systemic
- Humanistic
+ specific to Arts Therapies: Multi-modal comprehensive, Phenomenological.
No state recognition.
Visual art therapy is conducted in a variety of settings:
Not many have full-time or even half-time work as art therapists; most have a part-time art therapy activity, necessitating complementing income with other activities (artistic, medical, paramedical, educational, social work, etc).
- for clinical/medical clients (psychiatric, disabled, chronic diseases, cancer, etc),
- social settings,
- educational (though art therapy has not yet been introduced into the public schools),
- private, etc,
