    Rob Gray is also offering a wonderful programme (12 mths, over 10 weekends) in Art Therapy.
    Rob is the Co ordinator of Centre for Educational and Clinical Art Therapy. It is a fabulous course, I will be graduating in May this year, and I have gained both personally and professionally from the programme. His web site is http://www.cecat.com.au and I would encourage anyone interested in a knowledgeable and hands on course to contact Rob. Currently he is operating at Newcastle and Taree in New South Wales in Australia

    There is a Diploma in Transpersonal Art Therapy offered by the College of Complementary Medicine in Sydney. It is a fantastic course I highly recommend it!

    Hi Naomi,

    Is the Diploma at CCMA reputable? I’ve seen some sites say that you need a Masters to qualify as an Art Therapist or have a background in art. Are you able to work as a therapist with just the diploma?

    Thanks :)
