We know many people have heard of art, music and drama therapy – but they’re not always fully understood. Our new series of films aims to change this and highlight the incredible impact arts therapists have on people’s lives.?
The films have been developed from a collaborative project with the British Association of Music Therapy and the British Association of Art Therapists, which was funded by NHS England to develop the three arts therapy professions.?
What is Dramatherapy?
These films and resources are designed to help people understand the powerful impact of arts therapies, whether they are seeking help, exploring career options, or interested in employing an arts therapist.
