BAAT Guidelines on Art Therapy for people with a psychosis-related diagnosis

This document is in three parts. Part 1 presents the
guidelines on key art therapy practices for people with a psychosis-related diagnosis. There are 10 broad areas
of practice, summarised very briefly on the next page.
Art therapists’ core practice is adapting to individuals in context, within these broad principles. In Part 1 we illustrate these principles with examples.
Comments from service user consultation are included.Part 2 explains how we developed these guidelines. Part 3 describes how we understand psychosis. Both Parts 2 and 3 make reference to the research evidence and theory upon which these guidelines are based. The reference list is attached to Part 3.
