Research
I´m member of the European Art Therapy Federation’s research group (EFAT). We launched in 2019 a study on the development of the art therapy profession across Europe. The research objective is to analyse the status and recognition of the profession, the theoretical approaches in training and practice, as well as the working conditions and professional organizations within each country. The research involved 33 European countries and was translated into 22 languages.
This study is now at its final phase and the results will be published shortly.
