Re:Art Therapy in Greece

I'll try to help you, hoping you 'll forgive my terrible english. I' m a psychologist in Thessaloniki.There is an Art Therapy Centre in Athens (a private one), but i' m afraid it is the only one. Recently , there have been started some educational seminars for people who are interested. Despite this, art therapy is widely used in mental health areas, in combination with other forms of psychotherapy.The proffessionals of mental health accept the importance of art and they often include it in their therapeutic programs.
I' m not so sure if people generally would trust this kind of therapy. People in Greece are still reluctant to visit a therapist. Fortunally the last years there is a change in their attitude.
I hope i was helpful. Good luck.
