The practice treats art therapy as an integrative mental health and human services profession grounded in active artmaking, creative process, psychological theory, and human experience.
The practice also places strong value on the recognition and incorporation of evidence-based neuroscientific concepts into creative arts therapeutic knowledge and practice.
Inclusivity, dignity, self-worth, wellbeing, creative potential, social justice, and sustainability are central to the way the service works with clients and community.
