How moveable is it state-to-state with a license in Art Therapy?
Hello!
I'm on the fence of getting a Masters in Art Therapy and Counseling or a Masters in Social Work. For art therapy, I was wondering how possible it is to move to any other state with a license in art therapy?
I'm asking since the ability to move is really important to me (I have a partner whose career may require me to be flexible in where I live). At the same time, I also have a BFA in graphic design and I've always wanted a career that used my creative skillset.
Is it difficult to qualify as an Art Therapist in a different state you got your license in? It seems that some states do not recognize art therapy period so I was wondering how licensed art therapists navigate working there. Or would getting a Masters in Social Work be more worth my time for being able to work basically anywhere I wanted? Thank you!
