The International Expressive Arts Therapy Association (IEATA)

The International Expressive Arts Therapy Association (IEATA) is a professional organization that supports practitioners who use creative arts—such as art, music, dance, drama, and writing—in therapeutic settings. Its goal is to promote the effective use of expressive arts for healing and personal growth, establish ethical standards, provide education and training, and foster a global community of practitioners. IEATA helps ensure that expressive arts therapy is practiced responsibly and effectively, benefiting individuals seeking emotional, psychological, or physical well-being through creative expression.
