What work should I do to gain experience to be a Psychotherapist or Art Therapist?
Hi, I am in my third year of a degree in Early Childhood Studies and I am wanting to become either a Psychotherapist or an Art Therapist. I have looked at masters courses I would like to do, but they all require at least a years experience working in ‘care’ and say that working in a school that is not special needs is not sufficient for this experience. I have no idea what type of job to look for or where to look. I have been searching and all I seem to find is that for every job that would give me good experience I need to already have a formal nursing qualification or already have extensive experience. Please help!! Thank you.
P.S. I am in England.

Here's my opinion: artistic talent is largely learned. Most of the so-called experts will argue this statement, of course. They’ll proclaim that artistic oil painting techniques are only in the grasp of those rare individuals that are born with a mysteriously God-like ability to create art. Being lowly mortals, we should never even try to understand art let alone try to create it. Give me a break! Click here For the rest of the story: Free Painting Lesson
