Art therapy, clearly
Art therapy is a mental health profession
Art media and creative processes are integrated with psychological knowledge and psychotherapy within a professional therapeutic relationship
Words, images, materials, sensation, metaphor, relationship, and reflection can all carry clinically meaningful information
Talking can be central to art therapy. Creative processes add visual, sensory, symbolic, spatial, and embodied ways of communicating and working within psychotherapy
