BATA 41st Annual Virtual Symposium
“Re-centering the Creative Process in Art Therapy:
The radical potentiality of play”
Pat B. Allen, Ph.D., ATR
&
Zachary D. Van Den Berg, M.A., LPC-A, ATR-P
Close study of the AATA archives reveal strategies and disagreements among our founders about how best to build and develop the field of art therapy. Choices were made that felt pragmatic to some at our field’s inception that from today’s perspective feel limiting. We will revisit the past, lift up unheard voices, and through play with archival materials as well as art making, witness writing and discussion, aim to reclaim the creative process as central to art therapy. As an art therapist who is a recent grad and new to the field and an art therapist with more than forty years of experience, we chart a path informed by queer theory, hauntology, open studio process and spiritual exploration to revive and honor art therapy and art therapists.
