Master of Arts in Creative Arts Therapy (Clinical)

You will combine your passion for creativity, collaboration, and supporting others in order to enhance wellbeing. You will develop the confidence to contribute to this dynamic, emerging field, harnessing your own experience and interests to pioneer new frontiers in this rapidly expanding profession. In order to successfully complete the MA CAT and be eligible for professional registration with the regional professional body, the Australian, New Zealand, and Asian Creative Arts Therapy Association (ANZACATA), students complete an independent research project supported by a research supervisor and 750 hours of supervised clinical practice. The clinical practice is achieved in the final 18-month period of study via placements that involve work with real-world clients and populations. Students are encouraged to seek out a variety of placement opportunities, assisted by faculty. The research is undertaken during the final year of study. External Creative Arts Therapy clinical and research supervision is funded by Whitecliffe College.
